Can it catch them just by headers, or does it evaluate for spam AFTER it downloads the entire piece of crap, complete with HTML bloat (generated by Microsoft Word or some equally lame thing that toggles styles on and off multiple times on every line) and all the stupid graphic attachments? I just route my mail through despammed.com - a free forwarding service. I see one or two spams per month. There are other such services. One is myrealbox.com. Another is mailircuit.com (although I haven't seen it in a year, and it might have become a pay service). Can Mozilla spam-check the mail and then hand it off to the mail-reader I prefer?
