	I've seen this often on the feedback loop i get from aol,
namely their users similarly mark stuff as spam they meant to delete.

	the best is when they mark the monthly mailman item as spam.

	i've taken the approach of removing and blocking the user if I can
ID them, but mostly just ignoring the spam report.

	much easier that way.  you can't fix the users
sadly, they arrived in a broken state.
