In general, it is usually best NOT to reply to spam email to be removed from
the list. Historically, the spam operators just grin with glee because they
now have confirmation that your email address is valid, and will sell it to
a
gazillion more spammers...  In this case, you'd be better to just block the
sender since you keep getting emails from the same sender.
