What's the POINT?
Wanted to share a recent email that I got, that SpamAssassin didn't pick
up on as being spam. I have one crucial question afterwards.

Why am I sending to the list? Well, because I can't even find a point to
the damned mail. There are no valid links. No URL's. No HREF's. No
phone numbers. No nothing. This is as it appears in "raw" mode in pine.
I even tail'd my mailbox to be sure there was nothing the mailer was
hiding. They forged my address so there's not even something to imply a
site from there.
WHAT THE HECK IS THE POINT TO EVEN SENDING THE EMAIL OUT?
*sighs and sends it to spamassassin -r*
