Donated MX Records easily recognizable by spammers

Author: D.Remy (1 May 07 10:01am)

The MX record I just donated would be very easy for a spammer to recognize since the banner on the donated MX server now shows:
lola.projecthoneypot.org

Is there any way to change the record on your server side so that spammers could have a harder time finding these donated records?

i doubt many if any spammers actually look through their records but it wouldn't be hardd for them to stop their spider/bot/whatever from avoiding any wildcard with projecthoneypot.org in it so it would be good if they did change it and it wouldn't be hard to either (i think)
