Hey, it's just like the good old days back in the 1980's when every piece of email actually received was like a minor miracle! I still fondly remember the email to the next cubicle that was routed through Waterloo.

oh, and Linus, if you're watching, take a tip from a cop who does: you may find the combination of bayesian-based ifile with pattern-based spamassassin is much more reliable. Someday (soon perhaps) the two techniques will be folded together: Don't ya just love open source software!
