Is there any standard list of email prefixes or words that should be blocked by default?
If I'm sending a message as part of a validation flow or on behalf of a user, are there any standards for messages that are more likely to cause trouble than to result in happy users? I can come up with my own list, but I'd rather use a common list if one exists. I'm talking about blocking things like:
- suppot@.*
- helpdesk@.*
- admin@.*
- sales@.*
- .*listserv.*
- .*majordomo.*
- .*@txt.att.net
- .*@text.vzw.com
There is a partial list here which includes most of the above under "Bulk Email list administrative address" and "Other Administrative email", but is there any useful / definitive list I should reference instead?
I know that any of these could be valid, but it's more likely that someone would include one of these addresses maliciously or without intending to do so. (i.e. "Invite everyone@listserv.example.com to play FooVille" or "Mr. YourCompany Sucks, please validate sales@example.com by clicking here")
