Whenever I get one of these magazine SPAMS (which seems to happen at  
least once a day), I complain to the postmaster of wherever the current  
attack originated.  One of them wrote back with an interesting  
suggestion:

Begin forwarded message:

I don't know if writing here will do any good, but if a lot of people do  
it'll probably increase the chances of this sleazeball getting in  
trouble.
