All that does is confirm that your email address is active and that there is someone at the other end reading the message. So, the spam traffic increases. Just delete it. I use mailboxes and filter rules to place stuff where it is supposed to go. For example, everything which is directly mailed to my address goes into one box. All mailing list messages go into their own boxes. That way, anything which just gets sent to me and isn't part of a list message or isn't addressed to me directly stays in the inbox. It's in all probability spam. And so it gets automatically deleted.
