Aren't they spam emails containing random words to bypass any spam filter you might have installed on your pc?

I get loads of them- just short emails with random words. spam filter rarely catches them.

That's what I think they are for, they get through the filter and then they hope you reply along the lines of WTF as it seems to be a legit email address they have come from, rather than cum_on_me@yahoo.com or whatever. They then know they have hit a valid email address.

RRH, if that's you're legit email address in there, I'd edit it out before this page gets crawled and your spam count goes through the roof!
