"idiot" is rather a mild description for this person.  That collection
of addresses wasn't put together in a few minutes.

I rarely (now) receive any spam - perhaps a couple a month directly
and a somewhat larger number via mailing lists!

Since I see so few direct spams my standard practice is to complain, about
every one, to the abuse address of the ISP of the offender and in rare
cases like this where they provide a readily identifiable organisation to
the appropriate abuse and postmaster address.  Direct company complaints
require some thought and I would never complain directly to anything of
a miracle health or financial nature etc.

Quelle surprise: both abuse at consortia.co.uk and postmaster at consortia.co.uk
bounce.  Clearly a c**p company with at least one c**p employee - they
might well try to excuse him as an intern!
