Adam, what is the difference between "Hey, this is a test" and "Test, please ignore" !? or why I have to put the word "test" in the body of the message or only in the subject !?
What you remark as "non-english paragraph" is something that is put automatically by the stmp server where I work and I have absolutely no control about it, what you are saying is that if I'll write something about Epic with that paragraph I'll be banned? It's crazy.
 
By the way you can see its short translation in english at the end of all my emails:
"This message and any attachments (the "message") are confidential and intended solely for the addressees.
Any unauthorised use or dissemination is prohibited.
E-mails are susceptible to alteration.
Fiditalia shall not be liable for the message if altered, changed or falsified."
 
You must also care if I'm a member for a long time or not and what I had send in the past, this is the real difference between a spammer or not!
 
And finally, all these emails (mine and your) are much more spam than the first one ...... I hope to stop here this flame
 
bye
Davide

        It's not in English, first of all. And you can easily test just by
        saying, "Hey, this is a test." It doesn't have to be something that
        no one but you - or at least a minority of people here -
        understands. Simple stuff, here. Not rocket science. I don't care
        who's been a member for how long...that's not the issue. The issue
        is that we don't want a bunch of spam here. I have no idea what it
        said - nor do I really care, to be honest - so it doesn't really
        matter how "harmless" it was. It was still spam, by the very
        definition of it, and my job here is to keep it out of the picture.
        I've been doing that quite diligently, and I wasn't about to let it
        go. I mean, think about it...someone lies and gets into the
        group...then they put up some crap for a dating site, or penis pills
        or whatever...but as long as they put "Test, please ignore" in the
        subject, it's now OK? No way. Simply put, you can put test in the
        body of the message, too...then people know it's a test, and not
        junk. I'm not mad at anyone, picking on anyone or playing any
        favorites. I'm simply going about what I offered to do and have done
        without fail from day one of my being asked to do it. I don't think
        you guys know just how many spammers I've kept OFF the list here, and
        jumping on my case about it is pretty lame. I've kept it - by
        myself - so that new memebers can join without a problem, but
        spammers can't. I don't think it's asking much to make a test a
        test, and not some huge, non-English paragraph that was completely
        unnecessary, and that no one knows or cares about. So please: if
        you're doing a "test" to make sure things work, my suggestion is to
        make it something about Epic or just put "test" in the body or
        something, or I will pick up on it, and I will say
        something...repeated efforts will cause me to do something about it,
        too.
        
        Oh, and I'm not sending a private e-mail. You made it public,
        pal...not me.
