Spam detection software, running on the system "mailcluster2", has
identified this incoming email as possible spam.  The original message
has been attached to this so you can view it (if it isn't spam) or block
similar future email.  If you have any questions, see
the administrator of that system for details.

Content preview:  Now THIS message has got to make it through to spam
  bins all over the gentoo-dev landscape. And funnily enough, it's a
  legitimate spam mail. Good luck with your respective spam blockers.
  Anyway, the real reason for this message is not low mortgage rates,
  im's, nudie pictures, or promises of mountains of cash for getting me
  out of nigeria. The real purpose, in fact, is to introduce to you:
  Armando Di Cianno who is new on Gentoo to completely renovate and
  reinvigorate GNUStep. Oh yes, ladies and gentlemen, he's here from
  Troy, NY or somewhere else (I don't know honestly, where, but he went
  to school in Troy), and he along with his roommates on the good ship
  have some sort of a socio-business collective they call Borg (which
  means commune in Trojan). Erm, he does a lot of other geek things too
  when he's not doing painful yogic postures. [...]

He knows a bunch of languages (computer languages, anyway), and speaks

Oh right, and his /nick is fafhrd.  We'll update you with the up to the

pronounced.

Spamassassin caught it just fine.  And seeing as how it did its job, I'm 
not feeding it your email as a ham.  I don't want to encourage that kind 
of behaviour.

I don't understand why you guys check emails that have a "List-Id:
Gentoo Linux mail <gentoo-dev.gentoo.org>" field in the header wether
they are spam or not. You need to subscribe to this list to post, hence
no spam from the list. Waste of system resources if you still check.
Same for the other gentoo ml's.

From: address spoofing. gentoo-dev gets the occasional spam sent to it.
Although gentoo-mips gets a lot more, mostly from `Kumba saying he
doesn't bite...

My procmail settings don't care for the From: field. I check for
List-Id: and so far there hasn't been one spammail that has this field.
Filter for List-Id: and be done with it, no spam check needed.

On gentoo-bsd, there are about 4-5 a week that go through that list.  It 
is such a low volume list that there is more spam than legitimate email 
in the list.

Well, spamassassin runs on the university server (and comes first) and 
procmail runs on my own workstation. spamassassin has this annoying feature 
to wrap the email if spam is found, so the List-Id part never get's found by 
procmail.
