We all know that the Update link is to be used for providing people who have clicked INSTALL with information when a hack has been updated...

What happens when someone decides to use the function just to tell everyone to vote for the hack as HOTM...or some other form of advertising/spam?

Having a 'Report this Email' link in the body of the email would be useful.
