Initially, I kept the auto-generated reply stuff, i.e. "Re: ..." and a full 
quote of the body which worked well in the past as far as I remember. When 
this failed, I tried variations with bodies that pretty looked like usual 
talk, e.g. "Dear Mail Delivery Subsystem, ... Regards Benjamin" but got this 
back as spam, too.

As said, my first attempt of posting to dev@ (which had always worked in the 
past) failed, too. I only managed to get the mail through by using a 
SquirrelMail instead of MSOE, so I am curious to see how this mail will
do...
it was rejected again (details at end of mail), so I am now trying to post
via Nabble.

I recently updated my Windows box with SP3 and start wondering whether
the updated version for MSOE is causing the ongoing rejects by the spam
filter.
