Gandalf -

While your sending the spammer 10 mb core files will definitely help him
learn a _lot_ about linux, it is not the done thing to mailbomb a spammer
and reduce yourself to stoop down to his level.

What you can and must do is 

1. Forward the spam with full headers turned on to
hostmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx and cc abuse@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (his ISP) with a
request to terminate his miserable website with extreme prejudice.

2. GP Singh of VSNL <gpsingh@xxxxxxxx> to terminate his account
linux@xxxxxxxx (which is the point of contact for his domain, and through
whose servers he most likely sent the spam).  You can contact Mr.Sajoo
Verghese of VSNL Bangalore as well - he has been quite responsive about
spam issues.  I think sajoo@giasbm01 - just check.
