Traditional Widsom Still Applies....

I for one am planning to deal with SPAM is the usual way:

1) Message -> Block Sender...

2) NEVER, EVER reply (even for an opt-out): this just gets you put on a list of confirmed legit e-mail addresses to sell to other SPAMmers.

If I hear that the new bill is effective, I may change my stance on part 2, but until then, it's same ol' same ol' for me.

I wouldn't change your stance on #2 even if the bill is effective, because the bill only applies to spam sent from the US. While most of the spam comes from the US a large number does come from overseas. This bill does nothing for that spam.
