Yes, but like I said, if they were from someone I didn't know, it would have
been spam.  Think of it this way, it's spam that I want.

The email that I get, isn't always personal chit-chat.  it's bands trying to
promote their shows and sometimes merch.  So maybe 10% of the emails that I
get, if you were to receive them, you may consider spam.  Most of the email,
the bands have put me on their list without me asking, which is fine with
me...

Here's SA headers from an email that I wanted, but I didn't request...  So
in all fairness.. it is spam.. but once I add it to the whitelist, it will
never be caught again..

here's the SA headers:

  *  1.3 -- From: does not include a real name
  *  0.5 -- BODY: Claims you can be removed from the list
  *  0.3 -- BODY: Asks you to click below
  *  0.5 -- BODY: BAYES_80
            [score: 0.8385]
  *  0.7 -- URI: URL of page called "remove"
  *  0.3 -- URI: 'remove' URL contains an email address
  *  0.2 -- URI: Includes a 'remove' email address
  *  0.9 -- 'Message-Id' was added by a relay (3)
  *  1.2 -- message body is 25-50% uppercase
