1st, you can suggest they install something like spamassassin.  If they
have turned on server side filters you can look for keywords and use that
to move them to a 'probably spam' folder.  You really need to address this
question to them as they control which plug-ins are available.  Note:
filtering for SPAM can get very processor intensive so they may have
chosen not to do so. We do web hosting and couldn't turn anti-virus
filtering on until we got new hardware.

Bottom line you need to taok to your ISP. If you are interested you can go
to the squirrelmail site and look at the plugins and suggest some to them.
 However, they may not match their configuration.
