I've just submitted a report to spamcop.net.  I hope that the service works
as well as they claim.

Probably because they put an invalid address on it when they sent it out.
Consider it your lucky day, though, as replying to spam generally only
serves
to verify that yours is a live address.  Better to hand it off to spamcop

http://spamcop.net

which is quite good at tracing the Administrator responsible and getting the
spammer nailed.
