Sadly there is no good way to prosecute those low life bastards. Though we do get lucky every now and then and level some real damage on them. Sooner or later either legislation or technology will catch up to the point where we can either hold these schisters accountable or stop them altogether. Direct e-mail has about as much a legitimate place on the internet as virtual medicine, it's a curse that all sys admins pay for. Simply put these people are making money selling OUR resources, not their own. I am not only reffering to lost e-mail addresses and time, but bandwidth and hardware overhead generated by useless drivil.
