I'm assuming they're placeholders for database fields or something.

%CHILL - The message to get the person to chill out and read the spam

%DICK - The addressee, way to respect your potential customers

%CONTACT + %URL - email/site

%BYE - Closing

%ASSHOLE - Spammer's name (hey at least he knows what he is!)

omg, it's because you're using old UNIX technology. If you were working with a modern object-oriented XP.NET framework for the Enterprise you would have never run into this problem! Have you considered an XML-powered RESTful API with a nice AJAX interface? Clearly, that would exponentially increase your overall synergy bandwidth.
