Perhaps it's available as a commercial product, or as part of a  
regimen being promoted commercially (or perhaps, by highly organized  
wackos) in such volume that server filters have been told that it  
constitutes Spam. I mean, suppose one of us were to mention, say,  
Viagra (chosen as example du jour at random), even if the post in  
question weren't, strictly speaking, Spam, a lot of filters would  
cough when encountering it, because so much of the mail that includes  
that word _is_ Spam...

And no, I'm not equating those with an interest in Rejuvelac with  
wackos. I'm positing that somebody's Spam filter may be, however.
