Well, that would involve the software being able to identify the language. It's theoretically possible, I guess -- some wordprocessors, like MS Word, do it -- but a bit computing-intensive: the program would have to check a fair sample of each message's body against a spellchecker dictionary or something similar, and act if it does (or does not) achieve a set percentage of "hits." I'm unaware of an attempt to add this ability to TB, SM or any other e-mail client. However, you appear to be mostly wanting to get rid of undesirable messages in foreign languages. Wouldn't training the antispam filter to consider those as spam be enough to cut down on the annoyance? -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
