Thanks Stroller, for noticing. Yes, it's the second time I've posted  
about this. I insisted because I knew I couldn't be the only one.  
This message accounts for almost all of the spam that gets through  
the junk filter. I always get at least one a day, sometimes several  
all at once with different headers. Of course it's the business of  
spammers to find ways around spam filters. But I'm optimistic about  
Joe's fix so far. The new filter I created has already caught one of  
them, and no false positives.

Remind me where I can go to report this to Apple.
