Spammers never read replies to their spam. There is no point in
posting any reply, or for that matter doing anything but complaining
to the source(s) of the spam and to those hosting the domains
spamvertised. (Before anyone points out that the spammer in this case
was spamvertising them unbidden, I should like to note that if the
owners of those sites wish to protect themselves from such abuses,
they need to take action to have the spammer identified and served
with a cease-and-desist notice; if they fail to do so, then they are
acquiescing to the abuse and benefitting from it...and they deserve no
more consideration than any other spamvertised site.)
