Yes, I use the Mail Dispatcher in this way, as I have a filter to hold
mail on the server as well as the one to delete mail, so I review
the server list once a day. Not many spam messages get though, and those
that do go to SpamCop and I amend the filters as necessary.

 That is the way selective download filters work.

And very effectively, too.  What I would like is an addition in the
log file for the account to say that x messages were deleted without
downloading - at the moment, it only tells me the number of messages
on the server, the number of new ones, and the number downloaded.  It does not
say how many were deleted by the Kill filter.

Absolutely Right!
May is a good idea if we can contact some magazine to inform them

 I can't believe this! This kind of filtering on email client is
 ridiculous. Geez  even those of us who think OE is the pits, don't

It is probably because TB has the Mass Mailing feature, and this is enough
for some ISP's to filter on the Client for that very reason.

:-) Well then, I guess we should give them credit for recognising a
superior email client ... but I really don't think that TB! is going
to be the email client of choice for your average spammer. My guess is
that these ISP's who are filtering TB! are simply adding any *weird
looking* email clients into their filters without bothering to learn
anything about them. I think they probably look at the names of some
of these clients and decide that they don't *look normal* - therefore
they dump them into their filters *just in case*.

MDP Check that spam, if you still have it. I'll bet that's what sent it.

If you get a spam that has this header:

X-Mailer: The Bat! (1.52f) Business

it, incongruously will also have an X-MS-Priority header. TB only
uses X-Priority.

The X-Mailer header is a fake.

DH messages with v1.52f, 15 of those were sent to this and other TB!
DH lists and 3 of those were sent using the v1.52f Business edition,

Yes, it was a bona fide edition. It's just that it isn't used for
sending spam. It is far too low capacity.

DH so there may have been a business version sold by RITLabs.

There were, but not for spamming.

DH The other 21 messages were received by 3 accounts and are spam

Correct. You'll probably find the X-MS-Priority header too.

DH unless the Business version (if there is one) included (the hated)
DH HTML mail capacity.

It didn't. Business version is just the Business licence ($45) AOT
the Private licence ($35) AOT the Student licence ($25). Nothing
special, just a different price for different classes of user.

DH Most of those were in Trash directories.

I'm not surprised :-).

DH Is there a way to determine whether AMS was used?

Yes. It was Spam - ergo, it wasn't sent using TB. That's one fairly
simplistic maxim. I have found that the X-MS-Priority header tends to
appear in the AMS spams too.

MDP uses X-Priority.

Only six of the 21 spam messages lack X-MSMail-Priority and none of
them are hard core spam. They're spam for insurance or vacations or
something equally innocuous. The nastiest ones all have the
X-MSMail-Priority or X-MS-Priority: header and as mentioned, almost
all are HTML mail. All the html mail have a X-MS component.

MDP I have found that the X-MS-Priority header tends to appear in
MDP the AMS spams too.

Confirmed.

This stuff may be innocuous in that it's more or less
inoffensive, but when it comes purporting to be *from*
your own address, it's pretty annoying.

Not from TB, though .. don't think I've ever seen spam
with TB as the mailer .. yet. In time, no doubt.

Most of mine that comes from an actual mail client (as
opposed to aol, hotmail, yahoo .. ) seems to come from
Outlook, or a spam mail client. I'm with the guy who
things they ought to block Outlook :-)
