Re: "Non-Text" Spam Ads

Message Rule....

1: Select, Where the message body contains specific words.

2: Select, Move to specific folder (just for test purpose)

3: Select, Where the message body does not contain 'a' or 'e' or 'i' or 'o'
or 'u' or '1' or '2' or '3' or '4' or '5' or '6' or '7' or '8' or '9' or '0'

In number 3 above, after you add "a", Options will change from grayed out,
click it to select "does not contain".

Hope this helps,
Ken
