Better than that would be to create a subdomain and redirect everything 
sent to that domain. Have anything that is received at this domain 
either forwarded to SpamCop or produce your own blacklist. For 
instance:

jbaldwin at antinode.net becomes 
reply_to_jbaldwin_at_antinode.net at blackhole.ale.org and then post 
process (procmail) anything received by blackhole.ale.org
