Does the outgoing email have valid headers, or is he making you forge those too?

When I get spam from a legit company (example: BlackIce harvested the Microsoft Pocket PC newsgroup and sent ads to everyone) I send them a letter explaining what happened and, in case the higher-ups don't know what the ad guys are doing, explain why this is wrong, and by the way I blacklist any company that spams, so it amounts to ANTI-advertising.

So, has your company gotten any complaint letters, or just POSTMASTER bounces?

If getting complaint mail, it might be handled by a different chain of command, and saner heads can get involved.
