This spammer is a real nuisance, and we are not the only ones he spams.
There is even a web site where another person tells his tale of woe. For
many months I used the "full headers" option on my mail program to find
out where the spam was really coming from, and complained accordingly. As
Vladimir Titov says, the spammer just opened a new account as soon as the
old one was closed. Then, the spam started coming to my work email
account as well as through the ABRF mailing list. I tried complaining a
few times more, but the spam still kept coming. I even cc'd the
postmasters here at work and at aecom and it did no good. At this point,
since the powers that be couldn't help, I gave up. Now, I just delete the
spams as they arrive. Since I believe spam is theft, it really kills me
to be so powerless to stop this criminal conduct, but it seems this is a
reality I must face.
