You need to look at some better spam filtering software. SpamAssassin and 
anything else that uses Bayesian filtering should catch the types of things 
your talking about.

Well, it works for me anyway. I get about 200 spam messages a day and about 
197 of them are caught by SpamAssassin and sent to the spam folder. I don't 
even bother reviewing them anymore.
