Oh dear. Do you realise how many people you will be annoying by doing
this? Complaining to the right people is a good thing; complaining to
every address which JunkMail throws at you only wastes the time of
those whose job it is to deal with spam, meaning that they have less
time to deal with complaints from people who know exactly where their
complaint should be directed.

ISTR that information about interpreting email headers is available at
http://www.abuse.net/. I advise you to read it - JunkMail becomes a
much more useful program when used in conjunction with a bit of
knowledge.

Cheers,
