Holy shit. I wasn’t going to post so soon after yesterday’s but this is insane. I am running SpamAssassin on this server which awards to emails it considers spam based on various criteria. Bearing in mind the default (afaik – mine is anyway) cut off is 6 points, I was somewhat suprised to see a message that scored a whopping 49.8 points in my junk tray – a good five points over my previous record.
Here’s the summary – why the hell did the sender think this would ever get anywhere?
Spam detection software, running on the system "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx", has
identified this incoming email as possible spam. The original message
has been attached to this so you can view it (if it isn't spam) or label
similar future email. If you have any questions, see the administrator
of that system for details.
