coloured backgrounds; separate rules for .gif, .jpg
Authored by: hayne on Dec 18, '06 08:55:47AM

I haven't yet encountered the .pif attachments in spam, but I have been getting a lot of spam with .gif and .jpg attachments.
So I have been using similar rules (separate ones for .gif and .jpg) for classifying such messages as Junk.

My rules have a very useful additional action - they set the colour of the background to something that stands out (e.g. purple) so that I can easily see which of the messages in my Junk mail box were classified via these rules.
That makes it easier to check that none of them were misclassified - especially useful when first testing a rule.
