[newbie] Slightly OT - procmail question, and a few tips

[robin]

I'm trying to work out how to get round the latest spamming technique of 
putting umlauts above various letters to confuse spam filters.  rc.mail 
is an ascii file, so I can't just paste, say, and e-umlaut into it.

OTOH, I've recently come up with a recipe which gets rid of a lot of spam:

:0
* ^Subject:.*\?[Ii][Ss][Oo]-8859*
 {
     LOG="ISO trick "
     :0
     /dev/null
 }
This gets round the spammers' trick of writing the subject header as 
character codes.  You can do similar ones for Big5 or whatever.
