On a public mailng list isn't a great place to discuss such tactics...
I suspect spammers are dumb and will just vacuum up any address
they can find. Also, the scammers who sell CDs with millions of
email addresses on them are unlikely to do anything but the most
cursory
checking of the addresses.
Make a honeypot subdomain, put up any web content with
email addresses and I guarantee you'll start receiving email
on those addresses within a few days.

Having it appear in a resume on any of the job sites (dice, monster,
ladders, etc) is a good way to get it harvested.
So is posting to mozilla-gene...@mozilla.org or
net...@vger.kernel.org ...
and *that* is exactly hwat you should avoid: post a honeypot address
somewhere actively - a honeypot address should never be submitted
because you ask for troubles and false positives doing so
Not necessarily. If I post to a list with this address, and wait 60
days, I can assume that 99.999% of email that comes back after that date
is not related to the original posting.
Further, after 15 days, anything which doesn't also copy the list is
almost certainly Spam.
