If your boincing back using your own email address probably not a good
idea.
You can change this to bounce back with a different email address

I strongly recommend you dont bounce at all ( i delete) because the email
address they come from
are all bogus and usually they use someone elses genuine email address, who
then receives the bounces. Ive experienced this

To contact the spammers you have to click the link in their emails rather
than reply to their emails directly
