In article <telecom25.34.5@telecom-digest.org> you write:

This is spam for a fake conference, you know.

The scam is that they accept all the papers, no matter how lousy, and
charge inflated fees to the suckers. I suppose the conference
happens, but unless you like to hear yourself talk, there's no reason
to go.

[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: No, I did not know this was 'spam for a
fake conference', nor am I in a position to investigate these things.
But if you say a bunch of professors and researchers have conspired to
have a fake conference and they send out spam to encourage participation
then I guess I will take your word for it. But I do not intend to
start censoring researchers and their calls for papers on the premise
that it might be fake. I trust people like you will know the fake ones
when they come along. PAT]
