Most  of  the  time,  a nice quick and easy way to get rid of a lot of
mail,  is check to make sure you're in the TO field. I'm assuming most
new  people would contact you directly, as with colleagues and such. A
lot  of  the  spam  I receive isn't even addressed to me... or doesn't
even  come  with  a TO or CC field (magic ;)). Another way is to start
filtering  on  keywords...  making  sure not to filter on words you're
likely  to  receive  in  new  people's  emails.  Common  ones  include
"credit",  "debt",  "mortgage",  "adult", "xxx", "porn" etc. These are
okay unless you work in a credit agency that specializes mortgages ;)
