Ok, one thing I see the group not doing that they need to when this happens, is
including the full headers with the offending message.  As someone who handles
these kind of complaints for a living, I will tell you that generally the ISP
invlolved will not do anything without full headers.

The headers contain a fingerprint of the email message, especially including a
tracking serail number.  It is most important to have this to be able to
_legally_ prove anything.  And the ISP has to tread lightly on this even if the
guy is a scumbag depending on the TOS agreement.

If this happens again, do not delete the email, and get in touch with me, or
someone else knowledgable, that will help you prepare the message to the
apparent ISP the message came from.

I will help anyone on this type of thing, but I won't guarantee I'm available
at any given instant.
