One of the most effective filters here is [subject contains " "] (that's six spaces). A lot of junk mail has a reference number at the end of the subject, spaced off screen with a block of spaces. I have never seen non-spam mail with that many spaces in the subject. -- Barry Wainwright <http://www.barryw.net> If you don't know where you're going You probably won't end up there. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
