Okay, majordomo is probably hackable by a spammer with a bit of time and
knowledge.

The other spammers will log into a mailserver and do a few expn and vrfy
commands to find addresses on duff servers. 

I'd hoped this list would be about measures to take to avoid or eliminate
spamming, but all I've seen so far is debate about whether we can spoof this
list.
