how does the sender NOT inhale the spores? Even if he/she wears a gasmask while putting the stuff in the envelope, wouldn't some be left behind? They must go thru a lot of bleach and Cipro.

You can use a laminar flow hood and disinfectant. Plus, it takes 10,000 spores in the lungs to give you pulmonary Anthrax. They can afford to breathe in a few.

Perhaps the reason for Atta's "dishpan hands"?

Perhaps the sender also got access to an anthrax vaccine from his allied government or pet rogue scientist.

No, they go through a lot of senders.

The answer to that is simple enough, for me at least
The guy uses a Scot Air Pac or some similar equipment.

Be Well
God Bless
