[OT] Looks like one of the major spammers lurks on sci.space.*, kids...

....I just got 11 spams on one of my business accounts for various
bogus products and services, including cheap viagra, Maxson
enlargement, and inkjet cartridges.

All were from "linda ham"

Wait, are you _serious_? Did this spam actually ask if you wanted to
enlarge your Maxson? That could become a fun new euphemism around here
for Willy, Mr. Happy, Big Johnson, John Thomas. Imagine discussing a
colleague's management ability by inferring that he "stepped on his
own Maxson".

Sounds like a seriously malfunctioning address scraper harvesting from
the subject lines or the bodies of the messages here...possibly the
only explanation for a Maxson enlargement spam from Linda Ham.

Btw, OM, I thought it funny, noticing that the .sig file in your
message in s.s.h. triggered a pile of sponsored links for George
Patton-related media merchandise, not space-related at all. A
discussion thread on pending anti-spam legislation over in
news.admin.net-abuse.email once triggered a column full of sponsored
links for lawyers, legal aid services and a couple of P.I.'s.

....You think that's funny? All of Beady's .sigs with his various laws
generate links to the American Dairy Association :-P

Actually, that's an old joke around here. JimO did it first:

I've been spammed by her. Now I know where she got my address.
