I posted earlier that sending a complaint to the ISP where the spam
originated using the address Abuse@domain.whatever could
be used.

Last week I complained about two letters from hotmail.com, and one
from juno.com. Both have been terminated, and both ISP's wrote
me to let me know. This works.

If you can't figure out where the spam came from, forward it, 
including
the headers and subject line to YOUR ISP, be it Mindspring or
wherever. They can/will send it to the right place.

Do NOT reply to the spammer as that only lets them know
that your's is an active email address.

Cheers.
