Better luck next time and best they remove my address from their list."  Haven't had another one since and the address it was sent to was majordomo at cycling.org which used to be used for mailing lists.   As you say, if everyone replied to them since they give a valid email address telling them we know what they are up and telling everyone else it may help discourage them.  At least it might be one type of spammer we may be able to get rid of.

All you have done is to confirm that your email address is valid.

Now they can sell it onto other spammers.
