Thread Name: BS: Fun with Spam
Subject: RE: BS: Fun with Spam
A lot of spam messages are simply blanketing a group of possible addresses (there are hundreds every month addressed to info@ for example). By responding to one such message you are simply confirming your address as a valid one, to be focussed on for more spam that follows.

Best to delete them or send straight to trash. Trying to "get your own back" without sniffing software and the knowhow is kicking barefoot at a brick wall.
