If you look at the headers again (I won't repost them), the spam actually
was sent through a US mail relay from an IP behind enterprise.net, a
customer of BT. Demon isn't in the headers, and I imagine it's probably a
ploy to get people to attack demon.co.uk.
However, abuse@the-involved-providers-here is a much better forum to
address your complaints.
