If we put RECBOATSCRUISING as the beginning of the header in ALL our

How about it....??


Latest spammers now steal a random header and use it to
hide themselves.


Yes, but if the subject line of every real poster began with something
common to all, followed by the real subject, the readers would sort the
subject line so all the real posts would be together.

After thinking about this, it might be a good idea to start each post with
something that will put it at the top of the subject list like:

"""

which only takes a second to type, even on an iphone, and alphabetizes it
at the top of the list sorted on subject....

Well, seems moot, tonight. The bot seems to have been stopped, for now.
I've not seen a post in many hours, now. Maybe it's just that server
blacklisted from usenetserver.com when I reported it to them.....

If a man goes way out into the woods all alone and says something,
is it still wrong, even though no woman hears him?
