I would suggest doing the following:

First, do not reply to the original message. Notice that the original
message had a "Reply-To" field that redirects everything back to this
list.

If you did not like the message, send a polite e-mail stating that
this kind of message is inapropriate for this list and that they
should stop sendind this kind of material to this list. If you want,
you can also point out that the WWW has places for this kind of thing.

I would also suggest that a copy of the e-mail you send to be sent to
the postmaster of the site that originated the message. The
information is the following:

shadow.net has address 198.79.48.2
shadow.net mail is handled by anshar.shadow.net

That shows that their mail is handled by themselves... :-( Anyway,
from internic we get:

Searching for shadow.net on rs.internic.net
Shadow Information Services (SHADOW2-DOM)
   2000 NW 88th Court
   Miami, FL 33172

   Domain Name: SHADOW.NET

   Administrative Contact:
      Svendsen, Jody  (JS96)  jsvendsen@SHADOW.NET

   Technical Contact, Zone Contact:
      Weir, Justin  (JW40)  jc@SHADOW.NET
      (305) 254-3402

   Record last updated on 26-Oct-93.

   Domain servers in listed order:

   NS.SHADOW.NET                198.79.48.2
   NOC.SURA.NET                 192.80.214.100


The InterNIC Registration Services Host ONLY contains Internet Information
(Networks, ASN's, Domains, and POC's).
Please use the whois server at nic.ddn.mil for MILNET Information.


I would also recommend sending the complain to the administrator:

jsvendsen@shadow.net


However, the easiest solution for junk mail is to pop it into the
closest bit bucket. :-)

Acacio.
