Well, Ben, what I do is reject spam-tagged messages with a beautifulBut _does_ it really hurt them. They don't get any feedback - users that
install spam filters wouldn't have responded to to the spam anyway, other
than deleting it manually. The only difference is that the deletion process is
automated by a spam filter. I reckon spammers don't really care about the
users that install filters.
Good point, Jim. Remember that tag line from the spam that made it through to the list? The one along the lines of "if they get enough e-mail thrown at them, they will become customers?"
I guess they figure that if they can't come up with something unique or
mainstream, if they toss enough e-mail at it, they can get a response. Sort
of reminds me of bureacracy only with money, politicians, and problems...

"data, reject=550 5.7.1 Blocked by Anti-Spam Filter",
wich certainly has made the number of spams to go low. The good thing about it is that somebody's mail is mistagged as a false positive, they know that it didn't made it trhough. I don't delete spam tagged messages, just reject them, and the spammers eventually remove the addresses from their databases.
That's my two cents
