It's not advisable to "do something to his pc". This could get you in to trouble. I'm sorry you're having this trouble though, but it should just simply be ignored. You could also report him to Yahoo or whichever email system he is using.

Log in to Yahoo, go to Options (right side). In the options, you can set spam protection, security centre, mail forwarding etc, but the one you want it is 'block addresses'. Simply enter the email address, press add block, and you won't hear from this person again.

PS - I presumed you used Yahoo mail, but there should be a 'block email' feature in most email packages. If not, I would just report it to his email provider, but don't reply to him. It probably just makes it worse, and he probably get's off on other peoples anger.

If he is a Yahoo! user, report him to Yahoo! and they can terminate his account. See Yahoo! Terms of Service.

Also, Harassment by Computer is a crime in the US. Print out the offensive e-mails and report him to the police.

I do not recommend that you retaliate by any illegal means.
