That number is probably on the low side. I once found a
spammer stupid enough to leave his address lists on the
web and about one in every sixteen thousand addresses on
his lists were my spamtraps.
I know my spamtraps are pretty small and insignificant
compared to what other people get, so ...
a spammer may be able to send one or two thousand spams (but certainly
not billions!) using his newly acquired domain before the domain gets
blacklisted.
Agreed.
