I redirect the mail right back to the source as well as postmaster,root 
etc.  The only trouble with this is the machines sending this stuff are 
setup to reject mail to those accts.  The best thing I have found is to 
lookup the domain holder as well as the DNS Entries.  Sending mail to all 
those listed.  So far that has been very effective.
