How can I best create spamtrap ids.

Some ideas:

Keep those published-on-the-web spamtraps, and have some patience. They'll pick them up eventually.

Use a future spamtrap on a mailing list for a week or two, making sure to put the address in your signature, then unsubscribe it from the list. Wait. (And wait long enough that no one's likely to try to contact you directly regarding the list posts.)

Find some existing spam with unsubscribe links that don't appear to be address-specific. Try to unsubscribe using the spamtrap address. (If the unsubscribe form is legit, you won't hear back from them. If not, and they start sending you spam, they have no business contacting an address that you used to UNsubscribe.) Wait.

The bottom line: be patient. It may take several weeks for them to bite, but once they do, they won't let go.
