Looks like I'm ahead of you - 1530 in two days. I can't believe anyone
is dumb enough to read any of these mails, but I guess there's one
born every minute.

As a side note, google does flag once in a while some of my mail from
a local group (BLUG Boulder LUG) as spam. Maybe it's the combination
of Boulder with some other words in the mail.
