(jargon) | tumbler
n.
1. [Originally from the Xanadu hypertext project] A tumbler is a {magic
cookie} generated as part of a record or message to give it a unique
identity. Usually a tumbler includes an encoded form of its creation date,
but if a software system has more than one concurrent process that could
generate tumblers it must also include an encoding of the process ID. If
tumblers will be shared across multiple network hosts, they must also
include the host name or network address. Tumblers often include a hash of
the rest of the message or record content so that it is possible to verify
the correctness of the data the tumbler is attached to.
2. Variant text added to spam instances (often in the Subject line) to make
them unique. This kind of tumbler is used to defeat schemes that check an
exact hash of an incoming message against known spam signatures; it also
compromises some kinds of statistical spam recognition.

1. (Zool.) A pigeon of the genus Columba and various
related genera. The species are numerous.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The domestic dove, including the varieties called
fantails, tumblers, carrier pigeons, etc., was
derived from the rock pigeon (Columba livia) of
Europe and Asia; the turtledove of Europe, celebrated
for its sweet, plaintive note, is Columba turtur or
Turtur vulgaris; the ringdove, the largest of
European species, is Columba palumbus; the {Carolina
dove}, or Mourning dove, is Zenaidura macroura; the
sea dove is the little auk (Mergulus alle or {Alle
alle}). See Turtledove, Ground dove, and {Rock
pigeon}. The dove is a symbol of peace, innocence,
gentleness, and affection; also, in art and in the
Scriptures, the typical symbol of the Holy Ghost.
[1913 Webster]
