Pathetic Spam Complaint Responses: Microsoft Hotmail

I received the "get rich importing Chinese junk" spam, delivered directly from a Hotmail server:

Received: from bay0-omc3-s1.bay0.hotmail.com ([65.54.246.201])
		 by mail.spsu.edu with esmtp (Exim 4.43)
		 id 1FL9rs-0000jZ-N1
		 for bMbUrMoGwEnD@spsu.edu; Sun, 19 Mar 2006 21:11:38 -0500
Hotmail responded with "This doesn't have a Hotmail From: header." Pathetic!

Conclusion: Hotmail is not interested in stopping spam. Corollary: You should refuse mail from Hotmail servers.

Evidence: the original spam email and Hotmail's response.

(My own email address in above and in the 'EVIDENCE' links has been munged to prevent other spammers from harvesting it from these pages. You can un-munge it by inspection; just remove MUNGED. Complete contact information for me is here: contact.html).
