Thanks for pointing the presence of the package out to me.

As for the usefulness, I think that it can't hurt much, but I'd rather
not let down my guards and then be hit by a new wave of an old spamming
technique. My personal impression is that spammers cycle through an
ever-increasing arsenal of methods to slip their spam by user's
filters. I don't have statistical evidence to back up this statement,
however.
