yea spam sux
after all my e-mail is in its various directories via the filters the last
filter looks at whats is left in the inbox, since all my spam does not have
my exact email address in the TO: header, i then trash everything that is NOT
any for my email adresses with the final filter..
this way my ever changing spam addresses are filtered out :-)
hope that helps
David
