That's a lot of spam! I'm not seeing footers on the emails at all.
Two or three emails did get through the filters, two from "Victoria [email protected] via leafe.com" and one from "The Edge Men Want [email protected] via leafe.com" Let me know if I you need more info, I can forward them to you off-list.
