Hi there,

yeah I know this spam mail. Unfortunately the AntiSpam features of IMail give you 
nothing that can help you stop this message. (There are even worse problems with not 
recognizing "<A HREF" in upper case as links and so on)

The only certain way to stop this is to use an inbound rule where you filter the 
message using "Where the body contains /g9.gif".


I already eMailed IMail about a month ago about many serious problems with the 
AntiSpam engine being tricked too easily. Unfortunately there is still no fix for the 
reported (reproducable) issues over one month now, even though they sound pretty easy 
to fix to me. Till then inbound rules are the only thing that can be of help against 
such spam mails. :(
