Hi!  A friend of mine is getting hammered with Costco, AAA, Lowe's and 
similar spam.  I don't know how they got her email address, but she's 
getting flooded.  Her email account is on a shared hosting platform 
(Hostgator) and while Spamassassin is installed and configured, it's 
blocking only so much of this.

Anyway, I'm writing because tonight, she started getting messages that 
contain the text of a prompt for an AI engine to generate the spam 
email.  lol

My questions:

 1. Is having access to the prompt text useful in helping Spamassassin
    detect and filter out AI generated spam?
 2. Would it be worthwhile to create any kind of rule to look for the
    prompt text to help in filtering out the messages?

I have a few samples of these if anyone is interested.

Thanks in advance!

Peace...

Tom
