Unfortunately the recipient's email address is still: 1.) Used by the spammer - or rude acquaintance who can't bother to use Bcc: when emailing more than one recipient; 2.) Shown in forwarded emails originating from one spammer - or rude acquaintance who can't bother to remove the original headers before forwarding. The result of these failures is that the recipient's email address ends up on multiple spammers' lists. BOUNCING an email *may* lead spammers to eliminate the address from their list when a BOUNCE returns an 'invalid email' or similar message. That is why Gmail should allow users to manually opt to BOUNCE. Spammers don't always route bounce returns to 'unknown domain' or 'trash'. Filtering only eliminates READING spam.

It would be nice to let them be on the receiving end for a change! Thanks alot for the very helpful information on this site, since I went through this process, I haven't had any more spam emails from a certain Nigerian company. Keep up the good work!
