Just for kicks, if you rightclick the message, do you have a "view source" option, or anywhere in the menu? If so, does the spammer's message contain a "X-Complaints-To: abuse@vjsrepresentacao.com.br"? In my case, since it already did, I have forwarded the whole email to them. Not good enough, it was three weeks ago and you still got yours, so the guy is still active.

>The email client you use, is it for Windows or for another OS?

Always the same - first Netscape, then Thunderbird for windows 32 bit, then same but 64 bit, then same but for linux. Every time I move to a next OS/version/machine, I keep the profile and email folders (never on system disk!), and then install the tBird, and repointer its ini file to use this profile. So I didn't have to migrate or whatever since about 1998. Only when moving the whole archive to a larger disk.
