You shouldn't give a message at all, silence is golden. The mailserver
has to indicate error status, I suppose you could try getting the .forward
script to barf on spam - perhaps returning some form of failed delivery.
I've heard the best way to counter spammers is to setup a dead slow server.
A 386 with 2Mb RAM and a Christmas Tree (well decorated with all options
turned on) sendmail should just about do it. This is especially valuable
if they target every combination of names that might lead to a valid email
address in your domain >:) Don't forget to install X windows on the 386 too!
