On the non-gen subject of disgusting spam (unsolicited, offensive email) all the open rootsweb lists have been periodically hit with spam, when that happens some people chose to contact authority's to complain, I am not sure how tho. Many websites exist about how to complain re spammers and get them kicked off their servers. One should never respond to spam, they then will totally deluge you. I always delete.
