AppleScript for spam reporting
Friday, February 24th, 2006
The US Federal Trade Commission is building a database of spam emails 
to help it “pursue law enforcement actions against people who send deceptive email”.
Whatever the pros and cons of the actual CAN-SPAM legislation, this can only be a good thing.
If you want to help out, you can use an AppleScript posted on macOSXHints which makes reporting the spam you receive easier.
It will forward selected spam emails to the FTC. The MacOSXHints tip includes the script itself and some instructions for its use.
