I have been getting pummeled by the image only spam messages too.

Does someone know HOW to reject this crap effffectively?

I was about to write the list and ask if there is a rule that could be
triggered when a message no only an image part but no text parts.  I
have no idea how to create it but that would be very useful for me and
this type of spam.  As far as I can tell that would work great here
and for me no false positives.

There should already be rules for that exact format. We see FPs
on them when users e-mail in a windows screen capture to show us a particular error they're getting. They'll put the complaint in the
subject line, paste the image into their Outlook & hit 'send'.
