Self regulate is NOT self retaliate.

Then, what will you do when (not IF) you'll receive X bazillions (say, 
one message per 100 packets send) polite emails requesting you to 
remove such-and-such random IP from your flood-list ? Will you really 
deal with all of those messages ?

I DO agree that strong measures should be taken against spammers. 
Legal ones, that is. No other way to keep a civilized society still 
civilized.
