Reporting to ISP's can't possibly help, since so many spammers use (as you yourself point out in your web page) throwaway $20 accounts. By the time you complain, and the ISP closes the account, the spammer has moved on to some other account. You could try reporting the ISP itself to various blacklists, but as long as an ISP reponds quickly, they generally stay within the good graces of the black list services --- and ones which don't generally end up blocking too much e-mail, with a false-positive rate which is unacceptably high. - Ted
