Generally spam comes from spoofed addresses to stop you and others filtering out regular offenders. The emails normally get a response by an embedded URL. So you can't do anything. It's got to be the people who run the internet and can see where stuff is originating from. To send an email a computer must reveal its correct IP address initially. Why ISPs are allowed to accept all this spam is baffling.
