# Send-Safe ratware (idea from Alan Curry)
# random alphanumerics, separated into groups of 16 by dashes (the first
# and last group may be shorter), with a lowercase "l" and a number
# appended. The final number is the length of the whole string not
# including the dashes or the "l<number>". Why? I have no idea. It's
# not a tracking code - the spamware does not save it locally.
#
# jm: it's specifically to throw off MIME base64 encoding, to evade AOL's
# filters.
