Absurd spam headers of the day
Both of these were actually spotted in my spam trap this morning. The actual body of the message was a ridiculously HTML-obfuscated ad for a mail-order pharmacy (not surprising, really).

Apparently a spatangoid is a type of starfish. Given these absurd headers, I wouldn’t be surprised if the spammers responsible for this had the relative intelligence of starfish.
Subject: re: unjointed info
From: “Packed D. Swamped” <smobley@adcomfg.com>
Mr. Swamped, the name is probably appropriate given how many gullible people must order from you, but I prefer my information to be jointed, thank you very much.
Edited to add: How did I miss this one while scanning through my spambox?
Subject: re: milked info
From: “Gesundheit M. Subheading” <don@1acredit.net>
I suppose you ought to milk the info for all it’s worth. And Gesundheit is a wonderful name for someone selling medications!
