To date Kunjon.org has shut down more than 200,000 spam sites, orders of

But to do this he needs your spam. No really: he wants everyone to
send spammail to his input address so his robots and chew it over and
send out notices to the relevant web hosts.
He provides a convenient Firefox plugin, just one of at least a hundred
reasons to consider switching to this free best-of-breed mail client.
I used that plugin for a while and I really appreciate the work the
author has done to curb spam. But just a word of warning: Comcast cut
off my outgoing email port after I'd been using the plugin for a while.
They said I was sending spam -- which was true, of course, but I was
sending it to Kunjon. They didn't care, their auto-bot had blocked the
port on my cable router and they refused to open it again. I was
outraged at their stupidity. I now use an alternate port but they're
watching that one too.
I'd use an alternate ISP. ;)
Sending email to a single address does not fit any normal definition of
spam.
Those people at Comcast are a good argument for drug testing in the
workplace.
