They ain't as smart as they think they is. I have a filter on my email that looks for things like "click here to remove" (including the very things required by law) and marks them as spam, which is then easily discarded... and it all gets sent to the FTC, 'legal' spam or not.

Unfortunately, my ISP mis-tags a few things as spam using such criteria. Besides, half the "click to remove" things are really "click to show the spammer this is a real email address".
