I suggest complaining to the spammer's Internet servcie provider. Here are a couple of web pages which I think you and many others will find helpful, following Dale Copps's excellent format for posting web-site URLs and information: <http://www.ilf.net/brotherhood/texts/txt/htsamb.html> "Surviving Abusive Repetitive Email Messages on the Internet (a.k.a. Spam Mail and Mail Bombs)" This page's topics include, but are not limited to: * Putting An End to the Mail-Bomber's Escapades * Discovering Detailed Information About the Mail-Bomber * Discovering Detailed Information About the Mail-Bomber's Internet Service Provider * Gathering Motives and Other Evidence * Contacting the System Administrators * Checklist For Your Response to an Internet Mail-Bombing (Christopher D. Reagoso, Brotherhood of Darkness, "an organization of hackers, phreakers, and programmers who have come together to share in knowledge and information.") <http://www.feist.com/~wprescott/campaign.html> "Sites that Campaign to Stamp out SPAM and Internet Abuse" This page includes approximately 50 links to anti-spam sites of varying degrees of quality and thoroughness. (Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial Email, or CAUCE, "an all-volunteer, ad hoc coalition of Internet users, network technology professionals, and Internet Service Provider administrators") Good luck!
