That depends on what direction you're trying to go.  Are you trying to
determine if a particular address is a spamtrap?  That might or might
not be easy to do.  Are you trying to find a spamtrap address?  I'm
pretty sure I found one, and it was trivial to do.  From the format of
the address, it would be easy for a human being to recognize, and I
could probably guess some reasonable patterns for grep that would find
others.
