Not only is the spam not constructed properly for its presentation
intentions, but it also doesn't contain any links in the plaintext
section or the html section, just like SC sez..  It does contain some
cleartext in the html, but that part doesn't have any links in it
either.  After the multiparts are 'over', that is *after* what is called
the boundary epilog, there is a little 'trailer' -- which of course has
no content type information since the content types are 'over' and the
trailer is promoting a resume service.  http://www.e-resume.net  whereas
the spambody was a stock spam.

Finding links in message body
Recurse multipart:
   Parsing text part
   Parsing HTML part
   No html links found, trying text parse
no links found

I'm not sure how you would have to be configured to 'find' the e-resume
link, except to dissect the message source.  It doesn't want to
'display' itself for me with any kind of OE configurations except
source.
