If it wasn't personalized or very personalized, then that would be true. However, there are a number of statements and questions that are specific to your business and could not possibly have been computer generated that could potentially be in such a hand typed e-mail... to a point where it would be obvious that the message were hand-typed and impossible for it to be computer generated. Sure, I know that a few spammers have gotten pretty good at trying to make their spam "look" hand-typed and personalized... but they will never get anywhere near a true hand-typed e-mail that is very personalized and specific to the recipient... and THAT is the kind of unsolicited e-mail I've asked about today. --Rob McEwen
