[PLUG] the latest trick by the SPAMers

["William H. Magill" <magill@mcgillsociety.org>]

This is the first of these I've gotten. .. The "body" of the message 
was in HTML and claimed I was about to become an ordained minster. Then 
at the end came the following text -- clearly designed to bypass 
virtually all current screening schemes.

It looks like somebody read the article on AI grading of SAT tests and 
similar "writing" things in Sunday's paper and implemented it as a way 
to bypass SPAM filters.

Fascinating ... can't claim those SPAMers are dumb!
