Right now they are just sending it to (1~9)...
Usually from 1 to 5.

Btw, writing straight to /dev/null isn't a good idea unless you're
-really- sure you've got it right.

If the recipe is safe enough to trash only e-mails directed to email(1~9), they will be SPAM for sure. I just checked the safety spamboxes (for other recipes which did not trash directly, but save the message instead) and I found no useful message there! :-(
