OK, changed subject line.
This may or not be useful, but here goes.
My ISP uses a spam filter that tends to miss some, but I discovered there
was a way to stop the persistent misses. The basic way to add to their
"spam” list is just to forward with full headers, but some persistent junk
was getting past.  I can, however, go directly to my "console" and add
"enemies", so I began opening the headers o look for the parts that were
not mutating and found good candidates.  Some of my real email got caught
up in my experiments, so I hd to individually label them "friend", but I am
now getting VERY little spam on either laptop or iPad(Mail.app on both)

I discovered that the part of the spammers' addresses after the @ did NOT
change.
