Hi Dan, Yes, as I know the pro version is able to filter keywords in the subject-line.
We've added a lot of keywords and phrases to our subjectline filter in SPAMCHK, but I think filtering for single special characters or also for a certain number of special characters will create more fp's then help to identify spam. What are legitime special characters and what not? For example we've checked if the appearance of "!" can be used as a good test. No way. I dont know what's in your inbox but I can find more special characters in my inbox then in the list of Spamreview.
