I hear you but you and I both know AV companies are not going to give up the
automated spamming feature that easily. A standard message beginning they
might be willing to impliment in a relatively short time and AV software is
constantly updated so this could make a difference and happen relatively
quickly.

As for the quantity you receive, its nothing compared to the amount of spam
those infected machines are soon going to be generating.
