ever-evolving spam

I just received "Subject: Dating 101: Dealing With the Race Factor".

The spam itself is boringly the same, but the header definitely caught my eye. (Not in tyhe way intended.)

That's a spammer abusing Yahoo personals, the same way that Yahoo calendar and Yahoo invites are used primarily (only, as far as I've seen) by spammers.

On an anti-spam list, I once asked if anybody had ever seen a legitimate message from those services. One person responded that he had, from Yahoo calendar; he sent it to himself.

Yahoo doesn't seem to care. One of these days I'll arrange to have them bitten for that.
