I don't think this is related to tor. It seems someone harvested your email address from the status page and send you some garbage. I have seen this form of spam as a part of a multipart message where the plain text is used to confuse Bayes filters. Maybe the spammer misconfigured his tool. Why would anyone send just a couple words? Because they can I guess.... Cheers, Christian -- You may use my gpg key for replies: pub 1024D/47F79788 2005/02/02 Christian Kellermann (C-Keen)
