I keep receiving email messages that use a scheme with random letters inside the spam keywords, that float to the right trough css to obfuscuate the keywords from the spam detection.
This is probably the same as the last attachement from: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=306468
Here's the html part:

Reporter, does the issue still occur in the latest supported 2.0.0.x / Shredder trunk nightlies?
(1.5.0.x is now end-of-life and the latest supported 2.0.0.x is now 2.0.0.16)

Sorry guys, i can't test this properly.
Unless Thunderbird is now doing ocr or something similar this bug will stay a problem, but the type of spam being delivered in my current inbox differs to much to say if it has been solved or not.

I'm guessing you didn't intend to change the resolution, because WORKSFORME makes absolutely no sense given your comment. The fact that you can't test it doesn't make it WORKSFORME.
but if you really think it's a dupe of bug 306468 ...

Its a Dupe of 306468 comment #9 indeed.
Worksforme because spam has changed enough to not trigger this problem anymore, The whole point of fixing the spam detection is to make sure it catches current practices right? On the other hand, I'm not too familiar with the different shades of resolutions here.

the difference here is, the spam you are NOW getting doesn't trigger the behavior, BUT the spam you posted in this bug hasn't been retested and likely is still fails detection. So thunderbird's behavior hasn't changed, ergo the bug should live on.
