SPAM - What do all the useless keywords at the end of the email mean?

[ghaynes]

Most of my SPAM at the bottom of the email contains all these useless keywords. What is the point in using this keywords?

Example from a SPAM that I got today:

countersunk,tour little watchie?,maidservant,and it must,
aegean,by saying likhodeev's,armhole,reward to give.
deed,i'm twentythree years,endurance,days of their,
artwork,comrades!' the chairman,balzac,the telegram contained.

spammers do that to trick Bayesian antispam programs (programs which use statistical analysis to guess which emails are spam). Those words are meant to confuse the spam filter, because they are words that wouldn't be used in spam, where words like "buy" "sales" "deal" "save" "money" etc would be more likely to be in spam.

If more 'non spam' words are in an email, then the filter thinks it's ok and lets it through.

or something like that....do a google search for bayesian spam for more info
