I get that feeling when I press "report spam" and gmail suggest I "unsubscribe from them", that that's exactly what the spammer want, a ping back so they know I'm susceptible, that I'm an engaging fool, and get put on all the lists.

It drives me nuts that I can't turn off the unsubscribe feature entirely. I'll use their unsubscribe button once, and if it doesn't work, then all future emails are getting forwarded back to whoever I gave the email address.
