It's rather extreme stating something like that.
As I understand from the original mail, the contact information for the 
inetnum is incorrect. You simply send an email to the LIR (OVH) 
complaining about the incorrect contact information. If they ignore your 
complaint, you send it to the RIR instead.
After the LIR or the RIR has corrected the contact information, you can 
resend your complaint.

As always, anyone can ignore your spam complaint if it doesn't violate 
any national law.
Blacklisting the provider of the offending party is just silly. 
Blacklist just the spam instead.
