for a business-only account this kind of filtering might be o.k. -- but in
general, I can't catch up with the idea, a message deriving from
"eastern bloc" per se. Though occasions are rare, now and then there is a
perfectly litigable message from somewhere east in my inbox. Think about
the problem -- once we all have been proud about breaking frontiers
by internet communication.

btw, because of KLEZ, currently (measured in Bytes), I do receive
much more SPAM than litigable messages. Two third deriving from
somewhere@usa ... thoughts on appropriate filtering welcome :-/
