Garry: re: <<I don't think that many "spammers" pay for lists.>>

Perhaps so. However, I've noticed that much of the mail I get at AOL are solicitations to buy SPAM mailing lists. The subject headings read something like "Reach 17 million email addresses with our list".

Given the circulation of such lists, I rather doubt that replying to a SPAM email with a request to be removed from the list would have much effect, since one's email address would still appear on the same list being sold to others.
