    The quickest way is probably to use SpamHaus.org. Go to the site, click on "SBL" at the top and enter the IP address where the spam originated from the the SMTP headers in the appropriate query box. If they've an entry for the IP then they'll probably have all the contact information on the spammer you could possibly need, and if they have a ROKSO (Registry of Known Spam Operators) record as well then that may also include the name of his dog (I kid you not!)
