(I usually let these spelling things pass without comment, but this one
was too good.)

I think you meant to say "clever" protocol. But, in this instance, "cleaver"
works pretty well, too, eh? As in, let's just CHOP that spam right out of
here!
Yes, we all appreciate the new SPAM filters, and Richard, if you're
reading this, I've been meaning to send you some money to help run this
thing. If the advertising doesn't work out, please publish an address
where we can send a contribution.
(Oh, and the rest of you, please, let's not start another
spelling/grammar/punctuation war, unless you have something "cleaver"
to say.)
