teergrube /teer'groob/ n.
[German for `tar pit'] A trap set to punish spammers who use
an address harvester; a
mail server deliberately set up to be really, really slow. To
activate it, scatter addresses that look like users on the
teergrube's host in places where the address harvester will be
trolling (one popular way is to embed the fake address in a
Usenet sig block next to a human-readable warning not to send
mail to it). The address harvester will dutifully collect the
address. When the spammer tries to mailbomb it, his mailer will
get stuck.
