Unless it is ROT-13 (haven't tried), I would guess all the garbage words
are there to confuse Baysian (sp?) filters and other spam filters.  ie
specific keywords relating to spam as a percentage of all words is far
lower than it would be than if the garbage words are not there.  Other
than that, no idea.
