Today I got a spam mail that made me laugh. It was a generic "cheap stuff" message, offering electronics and clothes, a link to a dodgy website- and a rare bit of honesty.
The subject header: "[spam] Your order"
Thanks for the warning.  |

That was your ISP who added the [spam] tag,not the original sender (spammer) |

Really? Than why don't the other 53 messages in my spam box have the tag? |

Did you move it to the spam folder or report it as spam so moving it automatically? That may have added the tag if the thers were just sent straight to spam. If that theory doesn't hold water then I dunno.  |

Sometimes ISP's filter spam by using keywords. That email might have had a keyword that triggered the [spam] in the subject line. |
