strange writing on the bottom of e-mails

Post: # 626Post Andy Hamilton »

I do get shed loads of spam, but of late it seems to be getting a bit strange some rubbish about making millions had this at the bottom. Odd eh? Have no clue why they put it on.


All hunger at once left him, while he felt the same invigorating sensations as before. After a time the moon came out, and Rob amused himself gazing at the countless stars in the sky and wondering if the Demon was right when hesaid the world was the most important of all the planets
But presently he grew sleepy, and before he realized what was happening he had fallen into a sound and peaceful slumber, while the indicator still pointed to the southeast and he continued to move rapidly through the cool night air. 5

The Cannibal Island Doubtless the adventures of the day had tired Rob, for he slept throughout the night as comfortably as if he had been within his own room, lying upon his own bed. When, at last, he opened his eyes and gazed sleepily about him, he found himself over a great body of water, moving along with considerable speed.

hi,

The reason is that they are trying to provide "content" in order to fool spam filters into thinking that its valid or at least give it a smaller "spaminess" score.

It rarely works though.

Ah that makes sense cheers gug. I wish my spam filter worked properly if I turn it up it rejects emails from my address book. I experimented the other day and had it on full my brother had sent a group email that day which it rejected. there must be someone out there who buys things off spam or there would be no point in sending them.

You should be able to add a "white list" to your anti-spam software so it will always pass emails from those people to you.
