Fair enough, but in defence of George, long experience of Email,
Message-boards and Usenet teaches us NOT to respond to SPAM
(even to say 'Go away'), since the reply address is either
a) bogus, or b) set up to collect respondents e-addresses for
further spamming, now that one has kindly confirmed it's
authenticity through the act of replying.
That is why, if a SPAM has a 'click here to be removed' link,
for heaven's sake DON'T - you're only proving you exist and read
your email (and are thus a target for further crap)
