highest bailiff nomad father advise heir oxygen honorarium allegro reveal wronskian indentation coachmen deficient tribute arcturus mitigate bypath Anyone got a clue what this is? There are no attachments to these mails, but they keep coming in at a rate of about 1-2 per day, from different sources, nobody I know really.
Could be an attempt to 'poison' Bayesian filters. If people identify these messages as spam and use them to train their Bayesian filters, more and more 'good'/'normal' words will get a high spamvalue resulting in a higer rate of false positives. Or maybe it was an attempt to bypass Bayesian filters and the spammer just forgot to include an url. Joris _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
