This is an interesting one.

If you look at the HTML source, you'll see a PGP signature in an all white
font.  Clearly this is an attack on SA and similar programs.  Thankfully,
they made the rest of the message spammy enough that it was still over the
threshold by a wide margin.  They also went to great pains to prevent a spam
phrase filter from matching.

I am continually astonished at how determined spammers are to deliver their
mail to those who go to such pains to block it.
