When you reply to a spammer it validates for them that your email address is real, and they will start flooding you with all kinds of crap.

Just delete it.

Another good hint - set your emailer to tell you if the sender has requested a read receipt - another way spammers get your email. Just opening the email can send them a reply that you may not even know about (outlook with the preview pane open for example).
