P.S. this is just a theory on my part. I don't spam or do a lot of research on spam techniques, so I don't know this to be a cold hard fact, but rather a well-educated guess as I am a network/security consultant for several companies.
I'm always getting mail to info@mydomain, admin@mydomain, webmaster@mydomain

Fuckers need to to have their cocks removed.
