Yes granted. I never said it was easy for sure. But even a simple match

So, may be I could register a sex attractive domain and use that for a
spam trap! (:>

Could be nice, but may sure not be trivial either.
in the meantime, have you considered handling this yourself and just using
the maillog to your advantage? for example, you can grep maillog looking
for loglines referencing invalid users /for your local domains/.
I put Bob PERL script in use and so far, I have only very nice things to
say about it! Make the full spamd system much more efficient and as he
describe it. It is deadly! (;>
i'm using the following to add bullshit addresses to the greytrap, probably
could kill the 'zegrep' vs. 'egrep' stuff because it looks like zegrep
gracefully handles non gzipped stuff, but whatever.
Adding a long list of variation emails is sure doable and not a huge
problem. I was just thinking that having list of emails not in use trap
would be nice.
But Bob new script does support LDAP for email accounts and would do
that as well. So, I guess I need to setup an LDAP server and try it then.
Should be fun! (:>
i don't paste this because i say "copy and paste this and use it",

Thanks, I will have a look, but I have to say, I LOVE Bob PERL script here:

This is a joy to run!
Thanks Bob!
Best,
