Mario,

I agree, this is silly. And I do report the spammers that cause problems
for my users. But I do not have to to *go after* spammers by inviting them
to send me spam so I can track them down, nor do I have the time. I am busy
enough getting the ones bugging my users now to stop. Sorry, but I'm not
(and have no desire to be) Mr "Net Cop".
