Hmmm.. I seem to recall reporting emails from your spamfilter as spam. That
sort of defeats the purpose but the barrage of "reminders" they sent me was
bordering on hysteria.

In my opinion, the only solution to spam is to report the spam to your ISP's
mailhandler with the full header included.
Report it piece by piece to an address you can probably get from your ISP.
Most ISP's have a filtering system but for it to work they need spam
reported to them with the mail's "header" so they can identify where it came
from. For this purpose I use an Applescript written by Paul Berkowitz:
<http://Gnarlodious.com/Workshop/AppleScript/Entourage-SpamToEarthlink.html>

This script lets you forward the spam to an address with one click in the
script menu. What this means is that you will be a community participant in
the war against spam and let your ISP know someone takes the time to report
it.
