That's not how I would define dead. Our system can tell the difference between a good email sent to a dead domain and a spambot. Our definition is any domain that has not current legitimate email.

I think it would be a very good idea to define 'dead' before setting or accepting such a domain.

I hope dead = 'has bounced 550 5.1.1 for at least a year to all attempts to previously valid addresses', otherwise, for all intents and purposes, especially this one, "I'm not dead yet".

    Looking for people with dead domains that still get a lot of spam,
    especially spambot spam. I'm trying to get more spambot data for our
    hostkarma spam list. If you have such a domain that you aren't
    using can
    you set the MX to tarbaby.junkemailfilter.com. It will help stop
    spammers at the source.
