That's usually spam from a throwaway account used by the spammer. This technique is *old*, and is why some states try to legislate that the spammer use a valid return address.

Such laws don't work, of course. The spammer just illegally hides their spam under a veneer of "I recommend this stuff" with the account never seen again. Received on Mon Jul 07 2003 - 06:00:29 CDT
