I've gotten dozens of copies of that email. No. I'm not annoyed. I run some email servers where 90% of the incoming mail is spam. That's what spam filters are for.
This is much better targeted than most. It's like junk mail you get in the mailbox. Look, laugh, snicker, recycle. Any more effort than that is just a waste of time. Email addresses are widely published, archived, and easy to find. If you want to do something about it, write back to "Abhishek" and waste his time: "This FoxPro you speak of sounds really good! Where can I get it? Can you tell me more? I am a Nigerian prince and wish to spend TWELVE MILLION DOLLARS on a new system written in FoxPro..."
