Mueller: you've got this backwards. The anti-spam crusaders aren't concerned with the forged e-mail address the spam says it's "from"; they look up the Whois data for the website being advertised in the spam. Go back and look at those spams again and check the link the spammer was trying to get you to click. The spammer obviously wouldn't want to "forge" that address, altough he might try to obscure it. Is the Whois data for the "spamvertized" domain accurate?

Anonymous Coward: I have tried reporting domain names which a spammer "spamvertises" and contain invalid WHOIS information; however, most Registrars, with the exception of Go Daddy Software, do not care. Specifically, Register.com did nothing when I reported "pillmedics.net" and "pornhere.net" for invalid WHOIS contact information. So, I contacted Dan Halloran, who by the way is one ICANN's better employees, and he said he'd look into it. I don't think he ever did. What do you suggest there?Doug Mehus
