Not to add too much noise to the list, but that MUA (x-mailer: DeadFake Mailer) is sending HTML that's base64 encoded... but with a text/plain content type. Oops?

deadfake.com offer anonymised email services with no signup. Does this not immediately raise questions in itself?

Or am I just unnaturally suspicious of such services?

Have to admitt as soon as I see traffic relayed by a system such as that, I stop putting much stock in its content...

Hi,

  So far with 2 test messages, neither have been delivered. It also
does claim it leaves your IP in the email so there IS some "tracking"
approximately where it came from. I can't verify, of course, since 2 messages
have gone into never never land for me. Doesn't look like it ever got delivered.
Maybe one of my RBL's are stopping it.

shoot the messenger, eh?

the fact is that real 100m/100m is about USD30/mo in japan. in the
states, i pay about USD90 for 256k/768k. as far as the internet is
concerned, the united states is a third world country.

I currently pay (converted from ZAR to USD) $40/m for 192k/384k DSL. That gives me a pair to the exchange DSLAM, no internet. On top of that, I pay $10/m for each GB used on that line.
My average spend on plain old POTS DSL is $100/m.

If the US is the third world of telecoms, S.A. is the 50th world.

Please /do/ moan about government incompetence, drug induced legislation and failure for the stupidest people on this earth to understand free market economy (and where it works).
Please /don't/ pretend to be in the worst position out there, because I have some gruelling stories to tell... :slight_smile:

Obviously not the same part of the US as me. I pay $65/month for 5m/30m.
