SEVERE tech difficulties on net while entering Propeller Contest!

VIRAND

Here is an ALTERED (not by me) Subject line in the 2nd of 3 attempts to simply email my entry for
a project number over the past few days. It apparently was altered on outgoing, since it was
received this way by Parallax:

Subject: ***SUSPECT*** VIRAND (retry) request Project Number

I am not some idiot who doesn't know how to send email!

Any idea who "suspects" who or what of what?

I could maybe use some advice, or how to make friends with the NatSeAgency if they are doing it,
as someone suggested. The apparent cause of the previous QRM episode has been removed.

What evil plot is eff.org saving the internet from today?

VIRAND, If you spent as much time SPINNING as you do Trolling the Forums,
you'd have tons of awesome code to post! (Note to self)

What file type are you trying to send? ... I know the server doesn't like WMV and some other types... have you tried renaming it or 'ZIPing' it and sending it that way?

That really looks more like the results of a spam filter than a nefarious NSA plot. A look at the full headers of the message should reveal what piece of software decided your email was suspicious. While it would be unusual, your ISP might run a spam filter on outbound mail. More likely, it's Parallax's spam filter. My own filter started flagging stuff it didn't used to flag because, apparently, their check for "is the date grossly in the future" was rigged to check to see if the date was after Jan 1, 2010....

OK, the SPAM filter theory seems most likely. Parallax says theirs might have done it.

Perhaps a less accusing sounding alert message maybe more appropriate. How about:"**IS IT SPAM?**"
