There are far better ways to deal with UCE that do not impact the
reliability of normal E-mail.

Besides, the only means I know of for a spammer to create such a list is to
use embedded HTML bugs. If you truly value your privacy you should not use
an HTML-aware E-mail reader. It's not like spammers send mail from real
envelope sender addresses (at least not their own).
