Re: HTML mail
If you are using procmail, put:
:0:
* ^content-type:[ ]+text/html
spam
in your ~/.procmailrc to file html formatted e-mail in your spam
folder. You can probably do better with:
:0:
* ^content-type:[ ]+text/(plain|html);
* ^content-transfer-encoding:[ ]+base64
spam
which will do so if it is html formatted, and base64 encoded. If both
of those fail, you can search the body for both, too:
ws='[ ]*($[ ]+)*'
dq='"'
eol='$'
#
:0:
* $ ^content-type:${ws}text/(plain|html);${ws}charset=${dq}.*${dq}${eol}content-transfer-encoding:${ws}base64
spam
where the spaces in the ws variable are a tab character, hex 09,
followed by a space character, hex 20, and allow multiple line regex
searches in procmail.
