There should be plenty of these in spam.

Someone suggested setting up a secondary MX - spammers tend to prefer
secondaries as they often have no or limited filtering.

You could also set up a spam honeypot (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeypot_%28computing%29#Spam_honeypots )
like Jackpot and use the results from there.

I seem to remember Messenger spam containing lots of dodgy links, look
for UDP packets going to ports 1025-1030 or so.

cheers,
