In private email to Justin “SpamAssassin” Mason, I commented about blog spam and “how to fix it,” then realized that my comments were really dumb. In realizing my stupidity, I termed the word “spamateur,” which is henceforth defined as someone inexperienced enough to think that any simple solution has a hope of fixing the problem.

I’m curious why you chose the spelling, is that some sort of joke I can’t see, or should it be Spamateur?
I wrote the post (now corrected) late at night, and ignored my spell checking program, which naturally, didn’t know the word.
D’oh!
Looks like now you have to ignore your spell checking program more aggressively ;-)
