Replying to vir*s emails does nothing to help. The "FROM" address is
hijacked from real email addresses (such as mine has been lately), but
the message does not really come from that person's server so your
message will never get through to the vir*s sender.
On another note, if you reply to spam emails, it just fuels the fire
because the spam sender knows for sure you received it and are reading
their ad.
