Anyone else get random crap sent to them like this:
From: Ines Mlejnek <Mlejnek@all-randall.com>
Subject: Perrin fingered his axe often, and Mat rode with an arrow nocked to his bow, in the beginning.
But at the cross-roads he saw another policeman, one he did not know.

That's the point, they use random words and hardly ever make sense in order to get around spam filters. If more ISPs and relay hosts used SPF checking then a lot more could be stopped. BT seem to do pretty well though. My trash always contains caught messages online but hardly a spam email gets downloaded to my Outlook client.

Used to get loads of them at work, some have amusing stories to them! Then you read on and it goes on about something else.
And the subject matter never relates to the email
