Anyone else getting spam from Blockbuster?

I'm getting a bunch of these at random addresses on one domain. I only have three addresses on that domain - admin@, link@ and sponsors@. I've received about thirty of these in the past several days - all at made up names. It's not just "Jim" as below, the addy from this one was "jimb@".

I wrote them a nasty e-mail (well, professional, but threatening a civil suit under CAN SPAM :-)

I'm a blockbuster online member, but I used an address from a different domain - even a different server.

This is pure random addressing SPAM. The addresses they are sending to don't exist. I get all the BS mail through the default address... I've seen 8 different addys come through so far. I should sue these fuckers under CAN SPAM..

But I'm too lazy...
