Madam/Sir,

Merry Christmas from my NEW e-mail SPAM filter.  SPAM is unsolicited
junk email that I don't care to waste my time reading.  You shouldn't
waste your time either.  Visit http://spam.abuse.net.

You are receiving this automated reply because your message has been
rejected by the SPAM filter.  Your email address was not recognized
and I will not receive this or any other messages from you until
you become known to the system.

Please take a moment to make yourself known to this system and add
the word Z348D6364V to the subject line of your message and resend
it.  Once you are known to the system, your mail will pass through
the filter and you will not get this annoying message.

Alternatively, you can add a mail header "X-Despam-Key: Z348D6364V".

If your message was not sent to me directly, but through a mailing
list of some sort, I apologize for not recognizing you.  Could you
please resend the message as described above and point this problem
out?

Thanks,

Quentin Conner

Well, it is close.  I got 7 separate copies of that annoucement.  I guess
I am on too many of the mailing lists that Sameer posted this to, but it
did seem to be excessive.
