No. It could cost you your account. Spammers are known to forge email
addresses as the sender. Last year I had one of my email addresses so
forged, and got over 200 bounces. If you had bounced your spam to that
spammer, I would have gotten your bounce; and I would have complained to
your provider. Depending upon how Draconian your ISP is about enforcing
their AUP/TOS you might have gotten a warning, or even been disconnected
from the Internet.
