FWIW abuse@whatever seems to be a favorite in many spammers' lists.

I doubt that's their intent, seems like a good way to draw attention
to the spam from people with access to blocking lists etc, so I'll
guess they just blindly harvest web sites etc and abuse@whatever shows
up frequently.

That certainly doesn't help with the volume, some of that slips thru
spam filters, it adds up.
