At the end of the message, we kindly provided a link for unsubscribing from the newsletter

(the original message is at the bottom)
Funny observation: after a short time, this spam newsletter began to acquire the features of a social network.
- I ask you not to send letters to my mail regarding the NAIRIT workshop.
- WHY ARE LETTERS FROM YOU THAT DO NOT HAVE ANY RELATIONSHIP TO ME? BE CAREFULLY WHEN SENDING, PLEASE !!!
- Colleagues, let me give you some clarifications. Apparently, NAIRIT created a special mailing list: it is enough to send a letter to mailinglist@example.com and this letter will be sent to all addresses subscribed to the newsletter, that is, to us. Therefore, the only way to stop this spam is to not write anything to this address, which I suggest you do :)
- No one will leave this mailing list. Spreaders.
- All smacking in this chat!
- Dear colleagues. Good mood to all members of the newsletter! :) Anton

- Cool chat, I like it :) Now I’ll score NAIRIT in SPAM;))
