Not all of them do that, but a lot respond in some way or another. I have a "Complain" command in my UMA. It grovels through the body and headers looking for likely email addresses to complain to, letting me decide whether or not to use any particular one, then puts a canned complaint and the entire message in a message for me to edit. I clean up the headers some, and off it goes. I believe that if Outlook had such a feature, spam would die very, very quickly. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Q: How do you make the gods laugh?
