Here's the "Details" one, modified as you suggested, and on a test it
seemed to work. I'm sure I've gone the sledgehammer route by setting
up multiple filters, one for each of the possible headings, as my
attempt to get the | (or) option to work was unsuccessful and then I
read that there are options in other filters which aren't available
with Selective Download filters.

The selective download filters can take a long time to work,
especially first thing in a morning when I may have 400 messages, but
if they kill 50+ of these 100kb monsters, I'd guess time is actually
saved. My system too is safe from their effects, they're just a
nuisance. (Now I need a way to stop the idiot ISPs who can't recognise
a spoofed virus-infected email and send messages telling me "my mail"
can't be sent on, but then attach the entire 100kb+ message including
the attached virus infected file).

The sobig worm has these possible subject lines:

Thank you!
Your details

Re: Approved

Re: Wicked screensaver
Re: That movie

Here's the "Re: Details" filter (and your request now means that I
know how to copy and paste a filter, so thanks again!). Suggestions on
how to merge several of these filters would be welcome.
