It appears that this rule will also discard a message with Subject of
"last week's upgrade", "new battery pack", "microsoft is forcing me to
upgrade", "new openssh patch", or other unrelated subject lines...
Not very high chance of that happening, but watch out...

I've suffered greatly from this recent plaque - however, with the help of 
google I've found a sieve ruleset that deals with those beasts:

 Virus detection

if anyof(

allof(

Over the last couple of weeks I've been getting up to a thousand a
day. Just checked - 286 have arrived since last night. Probably a
combination of "Swen" and a few oldies. Luckily for me, they all are
filtered into my "other" folder because my setup carefully sorts the
mails I get, but the messages are numerous, senders and the subjects
are much more diverse than before, so I am seriously considering
adding a Bayesian filter for extra performance. After all, there is a
chance that a real email will be classified as "other", so I do glance
over senders and subjects once a day.
