I don't really know what is the next trick in a spammers arsenal. What bugs or regular behavior they will use in new "inventive" way. It is not long time ago that I learned why they like html format, and how they get confirmation that your email address is active if you just open the mail. No need to click any link, it is not a virus, and you get spammed. The IP address and email. Well the idea came from emails without any reference to mail address in the header that I received. How come? Mail server misconfiguration, bug or something else, sorry I'm not in the trade so I can't answer, but I was looking in a (raw) header and I believe that it is possible. Now, if I suspect that I have data miners on the other side, I simply go around as much as I can. -- Regards, Rajko.
