be real careful here.

1 - they have lawyers on retainer. The old adage of don't do battle with
those that buy ink by the barrel. 

2 - don't make threats that you don't fully intend to act upon. 

3 - what you actually need is proof (headers can be spoofed) and case
law that indicates that they have liability. 

My suggestion...better to spend your time setting up spamassassin
