Subject: Spam?

Dear all,
after I posted a message here yesterday and mentioned "Microsoft
W o r d" in it, I've been receiving offlist spam messages by
people who want to sell me word processing software. One was
about an online web word processor somewhere, and another one
openly advertised illegal copies of major Microsoft software
products. I find the latter one especially annoying, especially
when it associates itself with an open-source project like this
one.
I must say I haven't had much experience with spam of this kind
before. Any ideas what can be done about it?
