    This message don't appear to be a spam message.
    Sender maybe is a printer or a supplier for printing equipment and looking for some equipment.

    True enough it's about a printer, but Iran? Pooya Machine? Random email? Looks odd to me.

    JUST READ A FEW OF THE RESPONSES. I AM A PRINT INDUSTRY EXECUTIVE AND GOT TO THIS SITE VIA A GOOGLE SEARCH ALSO FOR ONE OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED MACHINES. I ALSO GOT A GOOD LAUGH AT SOME OF THE RESPONSES. ITS FUNNY HOW WE ARE SO KNOWLEDEABLE ONLY IN SOME "MINUTEST" SPHERES OF LIFE. JUST REMINDS ME OF HOW AWESOME GOD IS AND HOW MUCH WE DO NOT KNOW.

    It is remarkable that an Iranian importer of used printing presses should randomly email me. And even more so that others think it's totally normal that this should happen. Strange worlds indeed.

    P.S. I tried to turn it into a poem but had less luck than I have with other spam.
