This is particularly brilliant (and simple too). My only problem is
that I could never be sufficiently confident of any solution, that I
would not want to double check to make sure it really was SPAM.

Then the moment I see it, I am consumed by a righteous fire and a
determination to smite the evil monster who sent it to me. ...

Where do you live (physically)? 7 or 8 spams a days sounds
extraordinary.

Thanks for your reply
