In what way is this "honest". The headers are forged and he has used
this group to get around peoples' filters. I have compalined to
his provider and his up line providers. If everyone radidng this list
did teh same then maybe we can et him shut down.

Maybe I'm missing something, but this is an "honest" spam in that it

to filter out this whole class of "honest" spams. (In fact, I never
saw the original email, only thereplies.)
