I have to laugh… this was a spam that I received a few days ago in my Inbox, and it looked exactly like this:

%TO_CC_DEFAULT_HANDLER
Subject: %SUBJECT
Sender: "%FROM_NAME" <%FROM_EMAIL>
Mime-Version: 1.0 
Content-Type: text/html
Date: %CURRENT_DATE_TIME

%MESSAGE_BODY

The full message source looked like this:

How funny that it made it through like that, without any attempt at filling in the data. dspam, like the proper anti-spam crimefighting tool that it is, happily passed this straight on to me, because it knew I would be interested in it.

Funny how stupid spammers are these days.
