This filter doesn't catch *everything*, but for the last 6 years or so, it has had zero false positives for me while subscribed to limitless numbers of mailing lists. :0: * ^Content-Type:.*text/html HTML I go through the HTML folder occasionally, and all of the stuff is junk spam. There may be the opportunity for false positives, but in practice over the years, I've yet to see any with my mail load. Different people's mail usage may vary however... Hope this helps. -- Mike A.
