  I had a IP who refused to stop net spams..so I contacted his feed
source,in this case it was Sprintnet..their security,after checking
the facts..killed his net feed. It was a very high price to pay so you
can bet that 99.9% of IP
owners will stop spammers by simply killing their accounts. 
  One tip..always get the full header of a spam message..in it is
the source. From that info..do a whois and locate who actually owns
the IP and where the IP is getting its feed. There are several great
hunting tools around..I like ws_watch for one.  Good hunting
