Some fuckwit has been bombarding one of my legacy POP mailboxes with
SirCam crapola. So, because I had nothing better to do, I decided to
be nice and actually SEND A MAIL BACK with some friendly advice. I
Cc'd abuse and postmaster, just for completeness.
I received the following in short order, all wrapped up a nice
space-age multi-part MIME enclosure.

-------------------- End of forwarded message --------------------
*cough* RFC 2821 *cough* 4.5.1 *cough*
I hopped over to http://www.rfc-ignorant.org/ to make a submission,
but I had been beaten to it. Curses! How long more will fame elude
me?
