The VersaMail filters could definitely stand to be improved.  If it's 
any consolation, I've recently discovered that the VersaMail on the Treo 
700p is a bit more powerful (more options) than the older version that 
comes on the Palm TX PDA.

As for your particular question about filering out mail that contains 
both SPAM and JUNK in the subject line, perhaps creating two separate 
rules would do the trick, one for each offending string?  Hopefully it 
will treat the two rules as "ANDs" rather than "ORs".

OK, that's a start.  That works as long as you only want to not download
messages with SPAM in the subject.  How about not retrieving emails with
SPAM or JUNK in the subject?  The problem I see is that the filtering 
OR's
your filter criteria, rather than AND'ing them.  I don't see any means 
to
AND your filters, do you?
