How about a company that spams you _every day_ with essentially the same
come-on? That's what this bogus outfit allcoolmusic.com does. Sure,
there's an opt-out link, and I used it. Eureka, the spam stopped - for
about 3 weeks. Then it started again, to the same address. Seems like
once they get a valid mailbox, they don't let go. To make matters worse,
they're a dishonest comnpany selling free shareware software.

What would you do about that? They currently list a foreign (physical)
address, but there's evidence they started-out (and may easily still
reside) in Canada. Yes, I have "junk" filtering on my mail client and have
setup automatically deletion of spam, but what _should_ be available is an
option to bounce certain addresses/domains back to the originator right on
the server. I think that would go a _long_ way in stopping spam.
