so, cyrnel, you don't think this is actually spam? judging form the headers though it is all jumbled up random .jp and it all follows the same pattern as far as random text, as well as the headers all being very similar. All my other normal mail comes through just fine. I do not want any Japanese mail, I do not know anyone in Japan nor do I care to, but I do find it terribly odd that I would out of the blue all of a sudden after an actual decrease in spam activity over the last 10-12 months see such a huge jump.

It is a pop3 mail account, it is my home e-mail addy on my roadrunner account, I can turn off spami and check my mail like normal if I so wish to do so, but I do not think this is a spami or outlook issue, I just think I managed to attract the attention of the worlds worst spammer somehow. Also the bad thing about spami is that the program is/was written by a german gentleman and the help forums are in German with just one small thread for english speaking users, not to mention there have been no updates and everything is kinda supported by the kind folks who manage the forums, I do not think there really is any kind of tech support for it.
