I'm butting in here, but ...
I've been working on anti spam for the last few months,
and well over half the spam that comes into my box comes
via Outlook or Outlook Express. It may be as high as 90%,
the rest coming through hotmail and mailers of that ilk
with a sprinkling of Eudora and commercial stuff I don't
recognize. I have yet to see any spam come through with TB
or Poco on it.
The highest percentage by far comes in labeled Outlook or
OE... but I'll eat my trackball if anybody ever filters on
Outlook.
I'm also receiving some stuff with clearly forged headers
- this I know because some of it has my own address in the
'from' field ...
So I'd be leery to filter on X-headers or mailers.
Just my 2� worth ...
