A spamthing we can use?

One approach is the white list.  Instead of using the never ending approach
of finding and always adding to filters looking for possible spam content,
the white list takes the oppisite approach.  Set up a filter that looks for
mail you know you want and exclude everything else.  This is easy to do
using pine's filter functions.  For example, one says to keep any mail
containing an address also in one's addressbook, all else is either deleted
or moved to a seperate file.  My spam fell to 0 using this in pine.  There
is considerable more detail that can make it work easily, but the
addressbook is one example.
