How do you know which character set the mail is using? Do you read the body of the email until you find some number of ascii characters that are outside of your acceptable ascii character range? Or is there a header entry that you look for?

Filter mail from mailing lists. 2. Filter mail from my scripts. 3. Delete mail marked by my ISP as spam (scored 10/10). 4. Delete mail in character sets which I cannot read. 5. Delete mail from unwanted senders (blacklist/killfile). 6. Filter mail from known senders (whitelist). 7. Filter mail that is in reply to a message from me. 8. Challenge all other mail.
