    Oh hell. You're one of the few people here who uses a legit email

    Not that unusual anymore. It says something about how unimportant
    Usenet (or perhaps how strong spam filters are) is that we can all use real(ish) emails. It's 1988 all over again ;-)

    Curious, which browser do you prefer for text browsing?

    ELinks is the best IMO, but it hasn';t been updated for a while
    according to http://www.elinks.cz/news.html. :(

    I literally never get spam to my header email address. I assume this is
    because no one knows what a header is anymore, and if I put it in the
    body text it would be spam-o-rama.

    So I would suggest it's because headers are arcane, ancient magic and
    work as obfuscation in and of themselves.

    Never overestimate the power of laziness and/or ignorance.
