This is indeed the case.

The Subject: line, kept in my .procmail/log, is a pretty good clue.
If the user's name as reflected in the From_ line and placed in the
spamgard(tm) log isn't something like 23465123(_at_)somewhere(_dot_)com, I'll
mosey over to .procmail/log and take a look-see.

:the person there who might hire you emails you to invite you for an interview
:but gets an autoresponse of "I don't read mail unless it says `tiglet',"
:someone else will get the job.

If I'm giving someone my resume, I'll do one of four things:

  -- leave the e-mail address off the resume;
  -- mention "tiglet" in the resume itself;
  -- place the potential company's domain in my whitelist; or
  -- in extreme cases, turn off spamgard(tm) for a day or two.
