+X-Message-Info
+
+Mysterious headers appearing in spam recently:
+
+    X-Message-Info: 0oROdu983rDK/jdJaczEMfHXwmauX6Wf
+
+Turns out spammers think that this gets them past Hotmail's filters
+
+because a Hotmail message saved to disk contains this header?
+
+Result: X_MESSAGE_INFO SpamAssassin rule hits 37% of spam, 0.0004% ham

+End Results
+
+How does this arms race affect spammers?
+
+the standard HELO function with the standard headers that comes with [spamware X] scores very high on SpamAssassin etc and therefore the mailings are subsequently blocked and filtered... people using [X] need to use unique custom headers
+
+Finally, those "special" ways of masking the emails ... If anything, SpamAssassin will  give you MORE points for such things, rather than let your message get through.
+
+Key is to randomize EVERYTHING, this is not simple like it used to be it is more of an art now
