I've just come up with a new approach to dealing with the junk mail.  I've
found that (at least on my server) I can issue a whois command and get info
about who the system administrator is on various services.  For example, whois
delphi.com returns:
Biotechnet (DELPHI1-DOM)
   1030 Massachusetts Avenue
   Cambridge, MA 02139

   Domain Name: DELPHI.COM

   Administrative Contact:
      Williams, Rusty  (RW86)  rusty@DELPHI.COM
      (617) 491-3342 x321
   Technical Contact, Zone Contact:
      Shepardson, Rod  (RS187)  shepardson@DELPHI.COM
      (617) 491-3342 ext. 343
Why not send a copy and a cmplaint to the administrator of the source when
stuff like the investment opportunity (which came from delphi) shows up.
Acording to Dave, at least one system took care of the problem.  By the way -
does anyone still have a copy of the one from the banker that we could send to
delphi?
