You can include details about the spam (i.e. if it offended you or if
it was pornographic in nature) in your complaint too. If you are going to
follow up with law enforcement or pursue this further, include those statements
in the e-mail as well.
If you REALLY want to complain to an ISP, find out the ISP's phone number
and call them to log a complaint. They will most likely be more tuned in
to those calling with complaints than the thousands of complaints they receive
via e-mail. Make sure you have the full Internet headers and spam message
in front of you when you call.
If you use any of the templates below, make sure you tailor it to your
specific complaint:

| Dear Sir/Madam,
Below you will find the body and full Internet headers of an
unsolicited [pornographic/offensive] e-mail I received through your
service. I am forwarding it to your attention as I am sure that
you will want to take the appropriate actions against your client
and keep your good name as much as I do. I'm sure your acceptable
use policy prohibits this type of action.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter,

to an ISP or business that supports the content of the spam
(i.e. by hosting the website of the content of the e-mail or allowing
the spammer to be in business). |
| Dear Sir/Madam,
I'm sure you are interested when your company's name is associated
with [forged/pornographic/offensive] e-mail spam sent out to users
not requesting such information. Even though the e-mail may not
be coming from your network, your site and company's name is being
used in the content of the spam and it is quite [disturbing/annoying/offensive].
Your company allows this spammer to continue to be in business which
means there is more unsolicited [pornographic/offensive/annoying]
spam tying up the Internet.
I'm forwarding it to your attention as I am sure that you will
want to take the appropriate actions against your client and keep
your good name as much as we do. I've attached the body and
full Internet headers of the unsolicited e-mail message below.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter,
