If you have money you can send them to SpamCop ;o)

If you dont, you could send them automatically
to the responsible abuse admin, with a little
script, after the proposal is accepted.

A simple SQL-query, and a little procmail/perl/php-
script could do the job and report every mail
with a really big spam score easily.

Currently its really complicated, because of the whois mess.

Crime does not go away, if you ignore it ...
And all ISPs I talk too are happy to find
infected customers PCs as quick as possible.
More people reporting help a lot.

Stopping infected PCs quicker help to reduce
the spammers revenue.


Kind regards, Frank
