This article is almost a year old (dec 2002)!  An eternity in 
net time.  AAMOF, Deersoft was already being acquired by 
Network Associates by that time.  Wow, I saw very little fact
in the article anyway.  Most of the article was laughably 
inaccurate.  
        But just to be sure, I asked every 
employee at my place of employment (50+) to tell me if they
were upset that I was tagging 'suspected' spam by changing
the subject.  Not a single person was concerned and asked if
I could lower the score at which I shunt the spam to ground
(err.. forward email to /dev/null).
