Hmm...  Let me visit folder +Spam/Snakeoil...

Hmmm...
  - One "degree mill"
  - One "INFO ABOUT YOUR COLON"
  - A couple of "eBay Auction seminars"
  - Several "online prescription" notes
  - Five about copying DVDs
  - I wonder what "Gain 2-3 inches before X-Mas" might be?  :-)

And a dozen others that I don't feel like working further to identify.

The odd trend I have been seeing is for there to be large numbers of
spam messages that seem totally futile.  There's no way of contacting
them to buy their services.  No URLs.  No valid return address.  No way
for the message to be of any value whatever, supposing I _did_ want to
increase my breasts by a couple of sizes.
