This is one of the not so great tools spammers use to send anonymous mail.

Programs that Create Many Websites at once!
I also found programs that create many "free" websites remotely at geocities,
fortunecity, etc; by remotely, I mean you don't even have to signup or go to their
website. They post illegal software and pornography on these site along with the
usual spammer's "Get Rich Quick" link that is sent to you in spam messages. If one
goes down, 99 more pop up overnight.
I've been getting a lot of spam lately with addresses like [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Four or Five or so will arrive at a time. They are very hard to filter. The subject
line usually looks like the one below with a number spaced out from the subject
string. I guess they use this to identify each other or they think they are getting
credit from xyz company for sending the spam. I would suggest the proper way to
attack these spammers is the put the company or website that is linked in the message
out of business!
