Probably not so much a MailOp thing.. but for general info...

Seems the latest TLD to be abused to hell and back is now .science ...

It's actually been pure spam in a few 2-3 week episodes starting last June, but you might not have noticed if your MTA doesn't log what fast-talkers say.

Apparently ~2 weeks ago it became the favorite of someone stupid enough to use an antique stolen/sold Equifax list but smart enough to have their spamware wait for the SMTP banner.

...and no surprises why... http://register.science has:

"Be a .SCIENCE pioneer and be one of the first to register your .SCIENCE web address for only $0.89"

.. :/

I REALLY miss the days when the price for registering a domain was a short coherent paragraph justifying one's need for it.
