Grr to email!

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Grr to email!

When i get time i am seriously considering taking an Open Source email program and hack it up to reject any email that has the slightest sniff of chars outside the standard latin/west euro alphabets.

WHY dont email programs have the option to junk emails if in unicode? I get absolutely bombarded with russian/east european and chinese junk. My filters pick out most of the eurotrash but seem incapable of learning i dont want any crillic kanji or chinese.

Unless anyone knows a way? (other than entering entire alphabets as single filters).

Try Ritlabs The Bat! - it probably is the only eMail program that properly "speaks" and handles Russian. Unfortunately, Ritlabs only sells Windows software, otherwise I'd still be using it exclusively.

Hmm, although i dont want it to -learn- russian spam, i want it to delete all of it (plus any other mail with glyphs i cannot understand and chuck it in the trash, not even stopping in 'junk')

You can see my problem;

English/Swedish spam count today = about 3
Chinese, russian and other odd runes today = about 150-200
Wanted email = 20
