spam bait: n. Email addresses included in, or comprising the entirety of, a Usenet
message so that spammers mining a newsgroup with an
address harvester will collect them. These addresses can be people who
have offended or annoyed the poster, or who are included so that a spammer
will spam an official, thereby causing himself trouble. One particularly
effective form of spam bait is the address of a
teergrube.
