New spam type - sender domain quickly deleted

Dear list,

yesterday I've got some new kind of spam:

X-Envelope-From: ahlers@abruxateatro.com
Received: from abruxateatro.com (unknown [210.245.161.31])
	by power2u.goelsen.net (Postfix) with SMTP id ____________
	for <_____________>; Sun, 11 Jun 2006 18:25:57 +0200 (CEST)

X-Envelope-From: ahlers@acidstufftv.com
Received: from acidstufftv.com (unknown [210.245.161.31])
	by power2u.goelsen.net (Postfix) with SMTP id ____________
	for <_____________>; Sun, 11 Jun 2006 18:25:58 +0200 (CEST)

These domains don't exist now, but obviously did yesterday. Did anybody 
else see such SPAM? How can I check if a domain ever existed? 
Is anybody working on a check for new domains, so that you could say "if 
a domain is newer than 2 days, temporary reject"?

Oh, I got fooled by:
# whois abruxateatro.com
NO DOMAIN (1)

So, that domain at least exists. Could there be a check for whether a 
domain has an MX record, and if not give it some points? Would make 
sense, I guess, because normally e-mail is two-way...

And what about the acidstufftv.com domain?

abruxateatro.com still exists in DNS. although it looks like just a  
"domain parked" site:

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;www.abruxateatro.com.          IN      A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
www.abruxateatro.com.   300     IN      A       69.25.212.153

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
abruxateatro.com.       172671  IN      NS      ns.1.name.net.
abruxateatro.com.       172671  IN      NS      ns.2.name.net.

You might want to take a look at red.uribl.com, althought it's not  
"actively maintained" ..yet:

# red.uribl.com - Experimental list for new domain registrations and  
mass moves between registries that we define as spam supporters or  
facilitators. This zone is not actively maintained currently, but we  
have big plans for it ;) Oh ya, use at your own risk.
