Messages like the one below annoy me.  I think it's the people more than
the software though.  My own experiences with SpamAssassin are fine.
But I don't know of an I-hates-people list.

First of all, this message was sent in response to a letter to a mailing
list.  If you can't distinguish a letter as being from a mailing list,
at least have the decency to unsubscribe.

And, if mail is only unsolicited, why reply, since the address is probably
forged?  Just delete it.

Grrr.

- A, also hating websites which require JavaScript, yet again.
