If murphy is sending spamtraps, it deserves to be listed. period.
Um, nonsense.
Best practice for any mailing list is to require email confirmation,
based on a message sent to the subscribed address (whether the initial
subscribe request came via email or over the web). Thus, I can make
any mailing list server send email to a spamtrap address trivially --
I just fake a subscribe message "from" the spamtrap address, or enter
the spamtrap address into the subscription form on the web.
