I was waiting for this one :-)
The filters are in fact a bit smarter. Some examples:
If the filter is:
[spam rating]
[attachment name] [ends with] [.exe]
[attachment name] [ends with] [.pif]
[any condition is met]
[move attachments to trash]
[move message into folder] [spam]
then all the attachments of spam messages will be trashed, but only .exe
and .pif will be trashed for non spam messages; all spam messages, and
all message that contain .exe or .pif files will be moved to the spam folder.
If the filter is:
[spam rating]
[attachment name] [ends with] [.exe]
[all conditions ar met]
[move attachments to trash]
[move message into folder] [spam]
then all spam messages that have a .exe attachment will be moved to the
spam folder; if a spam message contains a .exe and a .jpg attachment,
only the .exe attachment will be moved to the trash.
