I got an annoying bounce from somebody's anti-spam package yesterday.
Posted a notice of a security update for MkLinux, and somebody's spam
filter said that it had detected spam in the message....  Man, that's just
sad.  So I said, fine.  When somebody cracks into their system, I'll blame
their spam filters....

Any spam filter based on content is doomed to failure unless the content
is "PURCHASE ORDERS WELCOME"....  :-)  Just MHO.

<p>Later,
