I've received a couple of messages now from some sort of spam
reply bot ( I've tracked it down, it's available at
http://www.compulink.co.uk/~net-services/spam ). Most of the messages
were in reply to spam that only peripherally touched our systems.
This program:
Extracts a list of address for relevant postmasters
Prepares a reply containing relevant legal/moral messages
Includes a copy of the spam
Sends it to all the postmasters and the end target.
I love this idea! A couple of key strokes and off the message
goes. Maybe it could even score down the message. Does anyone else
think this would be a valuable feature for gnus?

It is already. This is exactly what gnus-junk does. Please take a look
at <http://stud2.tuwien.ac.at/~e9426626/gnus-junk.html>.
If enough people find it useful, perhaps Ye Mighty Maintainer might be
pursued to include it in Quassia.

It seems to be a quite popular package, so I think I'll be including
it in Quassia. Probably.

Right. I'll write a spam-tool for Gnus right away, so gnus-junk will
get more popular still. *Ouch*, don't hit me!
