A new (to me) breed of spam has been showing up here for the past two or three days. I would be interested in any suggestions for an approach to filtering it.

A partial copy of such a message is appended at the bottom. FWIW, I'm running TB! 3.99.3 & ASS 2.6.05.

TIA

Actually this message is not very unusual for the content classifier. I.e. all you have to do is continue training the plug-in on these messages. However the plug-in will learn a bit longer in this case, and more similar formatted spam messages are required to make the classifier recognize them with high probability.
