Surely you must be joking?
A guide to how to be spammed.
1) Click on most spam emails to let them know your address is to be spammed.
2) Failing that in 1, click on a "remove me" so they know you are still
around.
....you were just lucky it said it is a dead address if it actually IS dead
but my bet is that it isn't and that you have received a "dead letter
office" reply from an active account. I can do that here and I am not a
spammer so why cant a spammer?
