That aside, let me urge everyone to use caution when putting in dummy
email addresses.

def.com is a registred domain. It doesn't appear to have currently
have an active mail server, but that's not to say that it never will.
If it does, I really don't think the admin will appreciate spam
attempts to user-id abc.

Don't use a domain name that you are not authorized to use, even if
that domain name is not currently a registered domain. It might be in
the future.

Interesting point. I used to use here@xxxxxxxxx but I found that domain is some sort of second life. I tend to use getstuffed@xxxxxxxxxxx just to make the point that I don't appreciate them demanding an e-mail address. I figured no one would actually use that domain name but in light of your e-mail I just tried it--silly me! It gets redirected to an "interesting" web site so those of you with sensitive natures may wish to leave it untested.

Simon Coulter.
