See http://handsonhowto.com/pmail101.html and the pages following;
your comments are welcome.  There's a wide variety of resources out
there, of course; mine is an attempt to start simple.

The spamsign you noticed is a pretty good one, though the "hashbusters"
spammers use (to try to defeat simple Subject line tests) are by now
a wide variety, not just five-digit numbers.

Fortunately the more elaborate their tricks, the less their junk
looks like regular mail.
