It could have been razor'd either by razor running on the recipient's
machine or by sourceforge.  It really doesn't matter.  The point was
that the addition of text causes the spam to be altered which means
even if the spam were in razor's database in its unaltered state it
is not likely to be listed in its altered state until a bunch of the
folks on this list receive it and some number of those folks report it.
Doesn't matter what the text is that was added nor why it was added
really.  What matters is that the original spam was altered thereby
aiding the spammer in some respects by introducing additional entropy
to the message and causing it to be missed even though it was probably
listed in its un-munged state.
