Spam that is delivered to a no-longer-existant or never-existant
mailbox.
On $WORK's systems, these occasionally clog up the system since we
have a limit of 250 simultaneous delivery attempts. That is, if we
don't watch it, the number of bounces will build up so that sendmail
is trying to deliver 250 simultaneously.
