There are varying laws in different states and countries. Check Spamlaws.com for information about your area.

New anti-spam legislation is currently in the works in the U.S.

Aside from the legality of it, it is against the Terms of Service of almost every ISP to use their servers or bandwidth to spam. This means that when you complain to a spammer's ISP, they may lose their Internet access (a good thing!).
