Do not reply to SPAM on the list. It makes it harder for the spam filters to
recognize it. If you simply *must* reply, (and no, comedic value no matter
how high is not a must) do *NOT* quote said SPAM. That confuses even the
content-based filters, since you have two messages with similar text, one SPAM
and one not.

Very good points.

Just adding my 2c,

If you must reply, please do change the subject line as well.
