I suppose a lot depends on your definition of the word 'actual', but there's definitely definitely something there replying on port 80, if nothing else.
Does anyone else see how dangerous this is? Nefarious people could obtain common names like this and monitor them for submissions with personal data from ignorant developers testing software.
Sure the issue is with the dev who made the mistake, but the result is nonetheless dangerous enough to warrant concern with security folk.

In that same line of thinking, who gets the email @test.com?
The owner of foo@bar.com has written a little blurb about the crap he gets at http://bar.com/
the guy who owns acme.com has similar problems
...as I'm sure domain.com (a registrar) does to
The people at test.com! They sounds a bit cranky.
(Very OT) Wow, test.com actually have a patent for "Internet test-making"

Cranky indeed. Unrelated but they have a misspelling on the referenced page:
"We can NOT control what other people forge in an email return address header and send using thier computers."
I own (my username)@gmail.com and I get test emails several times a week.
