I just wanted to check and warn of a nasty listtle spamming that almost
fooled me (who said: 'not that hard'?).

I had a mail from me to me (overtly) and I sometimes send things to myself
so I looked.   It contained a zip 'work and taxes' and the headers contain
this:

To: "Josephharris" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
From: "Josephharris" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Subject:
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
        boundary="--------qmlfqguudpzawcjhwwcd"
X-IMAIL-SPAM-DNSBL:
(fiveten,559677726,korea.spam.blackholes.five-ten-sg.com)

The size is 26kb.

It is the use of the name, extracted from the email address (which is all
that appears in the from line)  that seems a bit different and more fooling.
Is it a new twist, or am I way behind again?    And does anyone know the
danger of 'work and taxes'?

Joseph
