I have been overwhelmed with unwanted charitable solicitations. If you don't send money they try the guilt-trip approach of calendars, medals, etc. Does US Post office allow just return to sender so that they will get the message that too much is too much?
In that spam e-mail potentially interferes with your genealogy research I'll let this one in. My personal approach to spam is to simply delete it without comment much like I do with junk mail I receive the conventional way. If you return to sender all you are doing is affirming to the spammer that you have received their unwanted solicitation and they will continue to send to you.

Sybil, According to law, you do not have to return anything you received (i.e. calendars, etc.) that you did not order. Nor do you have to pay for it. Use it, pitch it, whatever you choose.
