The  more responsible attitude is to take a minute or two to paste the
mail  (including  headers)  to  http://spamcop.net.  This,  unlike the
MicroNonsense  filter  or  the delete key method, has the advantage of
having the spammer lose his account and / or web site. Try it - it can
feel *very* satisfying. Okay, it doesn't always result in an eviction,
but  you'll  be  surprised.  If  more  folks did it instead of hitting
<Del>, there'd be a lot less spam flying around.
