Hi,

I had that same thought today.  I think that is an attempt to full
Bayesian filters like Spam Assassin.

What would you do about people that don't spell well?

Take care,

Subject: [VOPmail Beta] Nonesense subject lines


* This is the vopmailbeta mailing list *



I noticed that recently a lot of spam have subject lines that contain
nonesense words. Words that are just a bunch of characters. It seems
spammers are getting desperate (a good sign) and are using such tactics
to
pass through word filters.

I was wondering if their tactics can be used against them like matching
words to dictionary lists.
For example if none of the words resides in a dictionary, the messages
is
mostly likely spam?

I also don't think anyone in their right mind should open such messages.
