The reason that there is no police activity toward spam is because it unforturnately isn't illegal and they can't prosecute.
Depending on where you live there are laws in existence regarding spam. Many of these laws themselves do not classify spam as a criminal action, but do provide the basis for civil actions.
My point is that there are also other laws in existence regarding unauthorized use of computer systems and these are not used sufficiently. When spammers abuse hotmail or an open mail relay to despatch their email, why are they not prosecuted?
