Just to be clear, the php:://input method doesn't really provide the "raw"
post data. I happened -- for an entirely different reason -- to fire up
ethereal to look at an HTTP post request. It's more complicated than that,
and reminds me that I read, someplace, about how to programmatically
create a POST request.

The really disgusting part of this is that it's got me *intentionally*
reading spam. Yech.
