Typical SPAM, you say. I recieve thousands a day, you say. Yeah, I know. But, check this out:

So, GMail let this through ‘coz this came in via Channel9. Spammers are getting more intelligenter and web savvier, with spam coming through Channel9 and even MyBlogLog.

 

This means that SPAM filters gotta work harder, since the normal Bayesian Filter (Which I presume Google uses) gives this email a pretty big positive score since it has a word which appears in many of my HAM email (Channel 9 or MyBlogLog). Let’s see how the powers that be tackle this problem…
