Some spamhauses and SPAM software developers must be, since I can see 
they try to get around the filters.  I get e-mail with "invisible 
space", comment tags used to break up HTML mail, and other feeble 
attempts to get by basic filtering scripts.

Spam Assassin has so many rules and types of scoring, I haven't seen 
one slip by yet on my box.  Looks like the "bathtub guy" just didn't 
do a bunch of cliche SPAMmer stuff.  Although the mail sender is 
blackholed to the point that Hawking would take notice.
