Yes, I did too.  I would appreciate it if you or anyone else who's
been spammed would forward the spam itself -- but it has to include
the full headers, otherwise I can't use it -- to me at this address:

	abuse_at_rockandwater.net

As some of you know, I've been active in the anti-spam/anti-abuse
area for a number of years; I will do my best to put this information
to good use.

About the "full headers" thing: that allows me and other folks to
trace the message back to its origin.  It's a necessary part of
spam-tracking.  There's a nice guide to "how to view the full headers on
your email messages" with instructions for all sorts of email clients here:

	http://www.claws-and-paws.com/spam-l/

Go to that URL and then under section 3, look for the fourth item, which is
a link that reads:

        How can I view the headers with mail client X?

Follow that link and you'll get the info for Outlook, Pegasus and
about a dozen other mail clients.   The rest of the FAQ has lots
of other useful info on figuring out who spammed you, blocking
spam, and so on.
