I have set some rules in Mozilla and I'm gettin' close to receive about 90% spam less :) the following rules just move those messages to the "Thrash":

the Content-Type contains ks_c_ (some Korean crap)
the Content-Type contains euc-kr (some Korean crap again)
the Sender contains recessionspecials.com
the Sender contains @helpfuloffers
the Sender contains @someonelikesyou


If you have more domains or rules, lemme know and I gonna add them.

If the list is gettin' big, maybe we can get a sticky? Or move it to Software with a sticky? Dunno.

I have an extensive list in Mailwasher, but it isn't with me right now, here are a few off the top of my head:

From box contains "" (Literally, I put those 2 quote marks and it cut out a ton of spam. Edit: More specifically it cuts out people who send email without a name attached to their email address -- 99.9% of the time they are spammers)
Subject contains <INSERT here address email your of part first>(IE: If your email addy is blah@home.com, enter blah)
If email is not directly sent to me (Built in filter for mailwasher, kills a lot of spam but also some mailist lists)

Can't think of others, will repost from home with more info. Top 2 are a must.

check out the filters that POPfile uses. Spammers use a lot of nasty html tricks to fool filters. Like adding html spaces within words and such.
