Thats all academic, there will always be someone trying to spem you, 
if you reduce the ways this is possible then you help to reduce the
spam, longer term it reduces costs in theft of network resources.

Obviously not, but you could help us in tracking any such offender, and 
help put a stop to it, InterISP co-ordination is important, and I'd guess
thats why organisations like RIPE, LINX and so on, are keen to be
a focal point for action.
