Absolutely true - they never want to clean up their lists - We are still
rejecting mail to accounts from spammers that were closed out seven years
ago.

I've seen no evidence of this.  The only thing I've seen for certain is
that the older an E-mail address is (once it has gotten on at least one
spammer's list), the more spam it gets.  Regardless of whether it's bounced
or not.  Spammers are still selling each other E-mail addresses I haven't
used in 4 years.
