The use the jibberish to make it past the spam filters. You or your ISP probably don't have ya longer lc lifej on your list of hot words to delete.
But I suspect you already know this

I get a lot of strange stuff on my hotmail account. I've blocked many of the email addresses and a few domains, but now I think they use fake addies from Yahoo and other places.

My web host has a really good filter that I can use that catches most of the SPAM but someone in the office complained because it was labeling her "FWD: FWD: FWD: FWD: Too Funny, You've got to try this! " e-mails that she forwards on to everyone else as SPAM so I had to turn it off.
