He didn't, though. Someone else included his name in a mail without his
permission by attaching a list of signatories from one petition to
another, which presumably irritates him as it depicts a political
viewpoint which he may not have.

In this case I think removing the mail is the correct thing to do - it's
spam, it's potentially damaging and it's not his fault. However, could
people actually check what people are complaining about before making
knee-jerk reactions and telling them they shouldn't have done something
they didn't do?
