No. Just the recipient of such nonsense.

If it arrives here in a foreign language, it's spam.

Because *I* get to define what is spam in *my* inbox.

Think about it: if there were ~20 words of English at the bottom of an 
email which has an unreadable subject line (because it is not in a 
character set understood by my computer or email client) would a spamcop 
reporter read it?
