since nearly 99% of spam attaches an inline gif, what about writing a rule to mark it as spam?

Do you check for valid helo?  For valid reverse dns?  For valid from?

I use only IMail for spam-filtering.  Any message that fails a test
(except valhelo - happens too much on good messages) is diverted.  Any
message that is diverted in a user's mailbox is also diverted in the
archive mailbox.  I regularly check the archive mailbox for any good
messages.  Any good messages diverted I revert/restore in the user's
mailbox.

I'm looking into a better solution.

Hi,

We analyzed the mail too and we couldn't find any phrase or html construct to create a rule.

I'm alos wondering how other spam filters are dealing with mails like this.

However he was not able to pronounce the words before the stranger spoke: 'Of course man is mortal, but that's only half the problem. The trouble is that mortality sometimes comes to him so suddenly! And he cannot even say what he will be doing this evening.' 'What a stupid way of putting the question. ' thought Berlioz and objected : 'Now there you exaggerate. I know more or less exactly what I'm going to be doing this evening. Provided of course that a brick doesn't fall on my head in the street. . .' 'A brick is neither here nor there,' the stranger interrupted persuasively. ' A brick never falls on anyone's head. You in particular, I assure you, are in no danger from that. Your death will be different.' 'Perhaps you know exactly how I am going to die? ' enquired Berlioz with understandable sarcasm at the ridiculous turn that the conversation seemed to be taking. ' Would you like to tell me?' 'Certainly,' rejoined the stranger. He looked Berlioz up and down as though he were measuring him for a suit and muttered through his teeth h rhshs htk tmojrjtkfj p jfj jfnjjjmjj sdjksdfsdfsdlgkj sdflkjsdf lksdjfsdfsdf
