This seems so weird to be asking to be spammed.

I've been a regular reader here for a few years. I've asked an occasional
question, and tried to answer a few now and then when I can. I now have a
request that is off topic, but I'm hoping you can help.

I'm one of the email system admins for my company. We're in the process of
implementing an anti-spam system. One of the things we want to do is
experiment and tune the system using "real" spam, without affecting our live
user email system.

What we've done is have our ISP set up a new email domain for us,
"test.cmhmetro.net". This email domain points to our new system. We've
set up an isolated system and created a couple of accounts with those
addresses. What I want to do is all the things you're not supposed to do
with email addresses on the internet; post them in newsgroups, put them on
junk mail lists, use them to answer Nigerian banking emails, etc. The
intent is to start getting real world junk mail through this test
environment.

When we're ready to put the anti-spam software on our production system,
we'll remove the test.cmhmetro.net domain and apply the settings we've
learned to our real system.

I'm asking for help from the readers of rec.woodworking. Use the addresses
of:



and put them on any internet junk email lists you run across..

I want to make it clear, I am not asking for anyone's email address. This
isn't some address harvesting scam..
