This is similar to my experience. But I have a question for the internet
experts most of the delisting services that I have run into require you to
enter your address what if you use the email address's in the header of the
spam message would that give them a wave of spam?

Mag etc.) ran recent articles on how using the spammers own exclusion
addresses generally seemed to work, contrary to "urban legend." I've found
exactly the opposite -- for two weeks in September, I assiduously tried
every de-listing link sent to me in every single spam e-mail, spending
about 90 minutes a day. Did it decrease my spam? No. But it *did* start
a new wave of spam which uses my own e-mail address as the return address,
which means that MW Pro cannot filter it out (MW Pro assumes my own address
is a "friend").
