	I see these all the time...

	Typically, someone files a spam complaint.  When our ticketing
system sends them back an acknowledgement, this filter bounces the 
'spam' (subject is preserved, with a ticket number appended.)

	Thusly, we cannot easily contact someone about their complaint
because of their oh-so-good spam filters (that only seem to work AFTER
they received the spam.)

	Genius in action.
