All: I just saw the strangest thing in my Yahoo! Mail bulk e-mail folder. It was the usual collection of pornographic spams. But, there was one message that really caught my eye. The subject line was:
*****SPAM***** The Beautiful Art of Female [snip]. xdvldmgzyohhmcn. ========================================== The text of the message was: This mail is probably spam.
