I've seen a handfull of these slip through spamassassin for me over the
last month or so. I suspect the spammers are creating multi-part messages
with gibberish in plain text formatting, and the real spam in the html.
Often all I see in pine is the gibberish until I view the raw message, but
my users whose email clients happily render anything see both parts.
