    Has anyone ever tried getting one of the spam-programs, adding all
the spam source sites ot the database, and letting it rip, sending
replies to all known spammers for each spam received? You might be
sending out no more than a few dozen (optimistically?) each time, but
on the receiving end that could add up to tens of thousands of
messages...
