I got a notification today that my domain has been included in this collection.

But as far as I can see it is gibberish spam-mails. I see 500+ entries such as:

   fkdsjlfjldsf@example.com
   spamkdsjf31@example.com
   fsdjlfsdjkl@example.com
i.e. None of these emails at my domain are real, nor have they ever been real.

That said if you allow password-based authentication on a server which is shared you might consider using my PAM module:

https://github.com/skx/pam_pwnd

It does lookups of previously-leaked passwords. Best practice these days is SSH-keys for authentication, but this would cover weak sudo passwords too, etc.
