I've been plagued with this one certain spam email that's advertising a digital cable filter or something. I always recognize it because there some nonsense in the Subject line, for example:
Re: falteringly and timorously kfq fko vnjqn ujk
I can never filter this because the subject is always different and random. So then, I tried the text, filtering "digital cable filter" and Mail still didn't filter it. So I looked at the source of the email and found this:
<body><ktpmruqys ia dpjjyiz txf
zq l syt cmo ifxtlq
i fjfwj opd
llm>
<p>T</kamikaze>he ul</occultation>timate digi</transmit>tal
cab</incriminate>le fi</bivariate>lter</p>
Those sneaky bastards insert random nonsense tags that don't affect the displayed text, but they make it impossible to make a rule to filter it out.
Has anybody had any luck beating this junk? I know I'd like to a) smack the folks sending me this crap and b) beat the living snot out of the programmer who designed the program to insert BS tags.
