Spam is spam, whether it's caused by an evil entity that's trying to
sell you something, or a nice person like yourself. Obviously, you post
with this addy to have spambots harvest it and use it. But there are a
couple of issues.
First, you are lowering yourself to the spammer's level. You are
fighting abuse with abuse and the world abounds with examples that
attest to the foolishness of such a strategy. And you are helping more
spam to be generated.
Second, this form of 'punishment' is likely to hit more than merely the
guilty party. How do you know that only gainpro.com is inconvenienced
by this? Might there be any innocent third parties affected by your
efforts? Consider too that GainPro is a trademarked product name.
IMHO, you can't have it both ways. 'nothanksonthespam' is inconsistent
with feeding spambots. Munge your addy and find a better way to deal
with the spam that seems to annoy you so much.
