Just be careful about getting your test messages produced in China - 
typical horror story I hear goes like this:

1) Company approaches Chinese manufacturer looking to have 100,000 test 
messages manufactured
2) When finished, Chinese manufacturer brings Company rep to inspect 
100,000 test messages, and then advises them that they have to buy the 
other 300,000 for the same price, or have the market flooded with cheap 
clones.

So that's where all your cheap knock-offs come from.

Can't wait till they try that trick on some OSS... buy 3 times as much 
as you wanted at the same price, or have the market flooded with 
knockoffs?  Sure!  Flood the market *please*... and I cancel my order 
;)

Anyhow, enough of this spam, I'm sure Mr. Still is having more quality 
time with his family and Christmas-light-Tux now that he can easily 
filter out the junk messages (subject =~ /FOR SALE/ or sender =~ 
/grail\@goldweb/ ;)
