Eeep, Cheer up charlie (or Cassie) :)
I was merely trying to clarify why your message appeared to be spam - and I will say that since were in sunny Oz and it had Brisbane mentioned somewhere, makes it much less spammy than most I get, which tends to come from russia, the US or china. On that topic: I think the worst you could do is send an email with the subject "mine.zip", no body, an attachment called "mine.zip" containing two files: mine.exe and mine.c and send it from a webmail address you don't use much. (which I did this morning and miracle of miracles it actually arrived, and was seen just in time with a spamassassin rating of 97.7) From the recipient I recieved an email "how to make your mail look less like spam" which I paraphrased for you previously :) Cheers, James PS Sorry for noising up the list but having problems getting in 'the zone' today so I'm fighting spam on our mailserver. > -----Original Message----- > From: Australia1976 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, 25 June 2004 3:00 PM > To: CFAussie Mailing List > Subject: [cfaussie] Re: Contract Job in Brisbane > > > Give it a rest. > > My name is Cassie.
