Mmmh.
Everyday I get emails from admin at nota-bene.org, john at nota-bene.org and james at nota-bene.org, which is funny because like you it's my domain and there are only two valid email addresses, mine and my girlfriend's.
I had not thought about this sh*t sending itself to other people too. I'll talk with a friend who's into security. I'll let you know if we stumble upon an interesting idea.
