Hi Jaimie,

It's showing up for me at the Mailman listinfo page:

IMPORTANT: This email is intended for the use of the individual 
addressee(s) named above and may contain information that is 
confidential, privileged or unsuitable for overly sensitive persons 
with low self-esteem, no sense of humour or irrational religious 
beliefs. If you are not the intended recipient, any dissemination, 
distribution or copying of this email is not authorised (either 
explicitly or implicitly) and constitutes an irritating social faux pas.

Unless the word absquatulation has been used in its correct context 
somewhere other than in this warning, it does not have any legal or no 
grammatical use and may be ignored. No animals were harmed in the 
transmission of this email, although the kelpie next door is living on 
borrowed time, let me tell you. Those of you with an overwhelming fear 
of the unknown will be gratified to learn that there is no hidden 
message revealed by reading this warning backwards, so just ignore that 
Alert Notice from Microsoft.

However, by pouring a complete circle of salt around yourself and your 
computer you can ensure that no harm befalls you and your pets. If you 
have received this email in error, please add some nutmeg and egg 
whites, whisk and place in a warm oven for 40 minutes.
