I use http://spamcop.net/ This automates the procedure of mailing to the offender and their service providers. Plus it's a double blind mailing. There is a free reporting only facility. That's the one to use.

BTW: i've used spamcop on all the spam that's gone through this list in the last few months ;-)

This guy is sending via sgi email list, a common fraud crime that is so numerous that he is as bad at spamming as a company dedicated to spam. He is hiding the oss.sgi.com address via CC or BCC, making it look like the email goes to someone else. I turn over one or two of these guys to get email accounts removed every day, the Nigerian scam guys just don't know when to quit.



Not much point in sending the complaint to SGI. AFAIK users do not have to be subscribed to the xfs list in order to post, there is nobody to remove. Complain to abuse@xxxxxxxxxxx which is where the spam came from - I did :)
