On the other hand maybe he wants them to spam the crap out of that
mailbox...

P.S. - If anyone didn't notice I have a "tag" stuck on the email
address.  If I get an email there I know where it came from.  If I get
alot of spam from it then I can just set a rule to delete all from that
address...  I've been setting up alot of those to try and track where
some of my spam may be coming from.
