At a glance, too much UPPER CASE.  Some spamtrappers are sensitive to
this.  If you're curious, try resending your post to me off-list;
I'll see what the headers report.

As for Shane's observation that spam peaks when a list posting
relfects his E-mail address, I wouldn't be able to observe that:
for me the time constants are too long.  The majority of my
spam is addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED], addresses
I haven't used for years but which still forward to me.
