I can confirm this behavior without a doubt. I have a catch
all mail account for xcorps.net that gets all mail
that is sent to non-existent xcorps.net addresses in
case someone has a spelling problem, doesn't have contact info, etc. One day, about a month ago, I got 943 copies of
the same message, addressed to different recipients.
Needless to say, an abuse report with that much
evidence gets escalated quickly.
