I'm collecting spam

I'm working on a content-based spam filter. The more spam I have to
train and/or test with, the better the filter will be, so I'd like
everyone to bounce unsolicited junk mail to junk@thehouse.org. I have
385 pieces so far, though since they come from several contributors,
there are probably duplicates.

I've also been putting bait@thehouse.org in various places, hoping
that it will find its way into spammers' lists. Feel free to help
spread it around, as long as the context makes it obvious that people
should not send mail to it.
