around 4 years back I had a similar situ - the numpty emailed us all on "cc" so I hit reply all with a "you may not want to cc everyone in future...." the chain of emails throughout the day from the others was comical value in itself!

There is also the chance to pass on other messages, such as promoting CUK or PCG membership, good practice amongst agents and so on.
This could be Wilmslow's chance to produce a short (just one or 2 pages) .PDF and attach that with the issues and other messages, a bit like a newsletter. It might be a good business-generating opportunity too by attaching a one page CV summary.

If you really are unhappy then withdraw your cv from them : say you are on their blacklist.
Why not send the list of emails to all the agents you know? I suggest via an anonymous email address!
I once got most of the emails this way : sent by an umbrella : montpelier. It has come in jolly handy for asking people to join the bn66 thread!

Got a few spams on the back of this, complained to the agents, who want me to call for the most sincere of apologies.
Now, if I wanted to have some fun, like data protection complaint, what would the options be?
Not that I would sell it on to an agent or anything (unless they could exchange my Focus for one that works perfectly!)
