Ooops! Be careful Phoebus, flaming a spammer could be dangerous. They might
subscribe you to a few hundred mailing lists as a revenge act. I usually
only return the spam I get and refrain from further attacks. But I agree
that there is a strong temptation to clogg their mailbox with a few
megabytes useless attachments... :-)
(No, I won't do that. It's just a temptation produced by my lower instincts).
