If you have a little time open each spam and view the header.
Actually just open it and then click *Forward* You should see the whole
header.
If the X-Abuse line shows
then *Forward* the
whole damn thing to
.
Just copy
and then use Ctrl V to paste it into
the To
Maybe if a lot of us keep at it the folks at google will:
1. Get the message
2. Get tired of being flooded with complaints

OK, I'm a little bit off. You're reacting to a news problem by
