I've been putting up with deleting spam from my email account for quite a while... it's kind of routine by now. The other day, however, I received the following in my Yahoo! Mail inbox, which leads me to believe that some @#*$&% is placing my address in the "From:" header of his/her scourge as he/she sends it out. Any idea how I can make this person stop? Is there some place I can report stuff like this?
