These are spam e-mails, of course, no one else needs to obfuscate their web
site addresses that way.
Get yourself a free or, with more capabilities, a pay account at
http://spamcop.net. Copy/paste the entire spam with all header lines into
the window there and the software will do complete analysis of any
non-javascript encoded spam target addresses and even format the complaints
for you. Furthermore, if the company claims it has resolved the matter
they will not continue to complain, thereby making it a good thig for them
to resolve their spam promptly.
Good service, IMHO.
