Depending on where you and the company are, you can actually sue them.
EDIT: To clarify: in Germany you can sue companies for spam and making the opt-out unnecessarily difficult. Of course the damages are so trivial you'll likely overpay but there are enough bored lawyers that these things tend to happen every now and then.

In the US you can't.
I looked up the federal law at one point and private individuals had no rights beyond reporting to the FTC. ISPs may have standing if they can show harm.

My state has laws on spam and you can sue.
Which state? One of the links in my comment says that canspam supersedes state laws, although I don't know how far that goes.

I see now that the majority of this document could have expired. Not sure where to find these "notes" that the document talks about. It also says federal law would preempt. So yeah... talk to a lawyer I guess!
According to http://www.spamlaws.com/state/nd.shtml it expires when a federal law is passed and comes into law that supersedes it.
(I don't think spam flags are personalized, so even to me future emails wouldn't go to spam. I could set up a filter, though.)
