Do those bots really exist? I would think the TLD I use is just not interessting enough for them, but it's from a big country.
- megous 6y agoYes, they did exist. I stopped using catchall because of them. It's not as common these days, looking at my postfix log. Though some large spammers were shut down a few years ago. I saw a sharp 60-70% drop in spam volume when that happened. So maybe someone who was doing this dictionary search gave up or was shutdown too in recent past.
- bartvk 6y agoI have this regularly. My catch all gets emails from a bot that tries common first names at my domain, but sometimes really weird ones as well, seemingly random such as a23ssaaaa@example.com
