On the contrary, you'd probably receive a lot of "test" mail that leaked through.

I've done data-mining on customers, and truth be told, they'll send that mail without human intervention. You wouldn't be impervious to ye olde mail merge!
Given how I fill out a lot of webforms, I feel sorry for whoever lives at 123 Fake St.
well, Google Maps says this guy is not happy with you http://maps.google.com/maps?q=123+Fake+Street,+Chuxiong,+Yun...
I've always had my mail forwarded to 1 Long St, Testville. I hope that guy has a big mailbox.
Hehe, the person at 123 street ave will be similarly pissed because of me.
I wonder if the guys who own asdf.com ever check the email going through asdf@asdf.com
They do (or at least have in the past). http://www.asdf.com/asdfemail.html. Interestingly, their real e-mail address is jklsemicolon@asdf.com
There is also the guy who owns bar.com which received alot of mail to foo@bar.com, its worth a read if only for this paragraph.

I MX’d the mail over to a friend’s spam-detection system for about 4 hours one time, but the volume crashed his server and he asked for relief.

When AOL first started allowing screen names longer than 8 characters, I knew someone who registered the name "My Documents". That got some ... interesting emails from people trying to save their downloads.
