I am smiling just at the thought. Would that I could do that to every
spammer! Someone spammed me from an easynet hosted address this week (it
wasn't zombied it came straight off their mailserver - from a company
that was based in London).

When I complained to easynet they sent me an automated mail that told me
that the spammer would be simply asked not to do it again.
