Well, you are intentionally ADDing an invalid (unmailable) address to your
list.  I know a lot of people on usenet are doing this or similar 'tricks'
to cut down on unwanted commercial email (UCE) but I am not in favor of
letting people use invalid addresses.

If you do it, be sure you set them  NOMAIL, NORENEW, NOREPRO, NOACK so
LISTSERV makes no attempt to send them any mail that will certainly bounce.
