About Spam Trap

The page:

http://www.panix.com/~bergman/mailinglist/mailinglist.html

consists of e-mail addresses or domains used by spammers, and were derived from actual spam that I received.

That page exists to poison the mailing list that spammers maintain, to make the process of sending out spam more error-prone, and to dilute the value of any databases of e-mail addresses that are for sale by and for spammers.

The page is deliberately not linked to anything else, and should be protected by a robots.txt file. Any web spider that has harvested addresses from that page is doing so in deliberate violation of the protocol. [an error occurred while processing this directive]
