I've recently seen a bit of spam (not caught by SA as I run it) with the following as the contents of the plain text portion of the email:
<snip>
This message contains an HTML formatted message but your email client does not support the display of HTML. Please view this message in a different mail client or forward this email to a web-based mail system.
</snip>
My question is simply is this okay to filter on? Or does anyone have any experience of any legitimate email coming with this?
Thanks.
Jeff
HI Jeff,
I would think that would be Bad, as I recall any out of the box install of Netscape, Outlook and OE will send their mail in html format and that disclaimer will appear if you are reading with a non-htmlized mail client. You would probably generate quite a few FP's. YMMV and perhaps you don't want any HTML(yech) mail but I believe that is what would happen
hth,
Scott
