It's too bad that about 1/3 of the reported mails are valid opt-in lists.
Ahh well -- this is a nice mechanism that AOL provides, IMO.

Can AOL's "this is spam" feedback loop be abused with a single person responding to a single message many, many times? Inquiring minds want to know.
No it can't be abused [by the average AOL user] - when you click the "Report Spam" button the message disappears from your mailbox. I tested this from within AOL version 10.3 for Mac OS X.
