Re: Can you tell me what this coding means?

a guess---

they are trying to tilt the word count, to maybe prevent that email from
being deleted by a spam filter.

put enough "other" words in, and the spam filter will let the mention of
seduce thru maybe...

another trick some do- is to put html comm<!-- asb -->ents in the mi<!--
frog -->ddle of words.

I think most of that stuff is aimed at fooling different spam-filters &
message rules. For instance, I have my rules set to delete any message with
Viagra in the heading. Now I notice more message headings with "v1agra" or
some such gibberish sneaking through.
