Uhhhh, yes...  And you being the final receiving party with a POP3 account, 
you will bounce to a (clueless, yes, but innocent) trojanized open proxy

It would be a complete waste of time and bandwidth, even more than our 
actual complaining to the ISP's, because the spammers are elsewere, one or 
more hops behind those open proxies, unreachable to your bounces.
