MOST SPAM HAS FORGED HEADINGS.


Yes but an African fraud letter doesn't because it would fail totally if
it did (unless there's an alternative address in the body)


Bouncing mail back or even writing something rude wastes their time and
may take their mailbox over quota.


And if you're posting it back through your ISP they can do a 'whois?'
and you may well find an armed yardie on your doorstep.

DON'T MESS WITH THEM.
