Below is a message I received today from a spammer. How can we police against this sort of thing?

Here is the spammer:

Spamming is against the rules at SillyDog.

I have listed, in the Moderator's Forum, the info that James has posted.

James should, as Fulvio mentioned, also file a complaint.

Thanks for moving this to the appropriate folder. I filed a message of complaint as you both advised.

Wow! You're fast, Antony. While I was formulating my response to Fulvio and Profman, you were in the process of taking action. Thanks. That's just one of the reasons I've always loved this forum. It's like a family and we know that someone is always about the house to provide assistance and encouragement. Thanks again. :D
