Talk about over-reaction.  I am quite certain that the number of
annoyed replies and bad publicity they got will be more than enough
to educate and punish them for sending this mail.

Fact is that most people would have already known it would attain this
negative result, so it really doesn't matter what sort of punishment
is meted out.  Only people unaware of the punishment would do such
a blind mailing, so deterrent is not possible.

Myself, I am 100% in favour of electronic junk mail replacing the
vast gobs of dead trees that land in my physical mailbox every day.
Once we lay down the patterns so that proper headers are placed on
the junk mail, then it's far better.  My computer can screen my junk
mail before I see it, something that doesn't happen on paper.  For
more details on this argument, please see comp.org.eff.talk where I
posted before this thread began here.

And calm down on this one.
