Oh, Doggy, do I ever:

First, set up a few tagged addresses.

Post to usenet with some addresses from your server.

Respond to a few spams listing your email address as the contact information.

Remove all the spam filtering rejection rules from Postfix-- i.e. don't
require FQDN for anything, use none of the RBLs, etc...

Make a post or three to BugTraq.

Post to Slashdot with an address from this domain.

Click on popups (in a sandboxed environment-- no point in being stupid!)
and give an address at that domain for contact info.

This is what my users do, and then wonder why they get spam...
