Yeah, but at least one sender IP that can't be
forged. Run jwhois on that, which usually gives
you an abuse@provider adress, and then simply
forward them the spam. Normal providers hate
hosting spammers. Unless, of course, it's one of
those phantom PC farms constitued of 50.000 infested Windows PC's.
As it was, the original poster of the thread did
not post his email headers, so we are just taking
his word for it that it came from eircom.net.
However, emailing their abuse@xxxxxxxxxx now gets
an auto-response that they will not accept
reports via email, but you must now fill in a web form to report.

In which case I notified them that I considered
that RFC-Ignorant behavior and that each and
every offending IP would be included in my local DNSBL.

Problem solved!
