JoeJob writes "A couple of victories in the legal war against spammers. First, a Washington resident has been awarded a $250,000 decision against a spammer that sent him 58,000 copies of a spam. Second, looks like the spammers who are trying to sue Spamhaus, SPEWS, and other spam blacklists have decided to tuck their tails and run. Let's hope this trend continues." If you care to celebrate this, one food springs to mind.

In extreme cases (porn sent to childrens email address, etc.) the spammer is sent to a federal -pound me in the ass- prison.

I just want you to know that I sincerely hope one day you're arrested for something you didn't do, and analy raped in prison by someone with AIDS.
