From: Gary Britt 

Great and thanks for the image.  Its amazing that given how old OE 6's
feature set that it still rates so well.  I link Thunderbird's built in
spam filtering better than OE 6's pretty lame rule making for deleting
spam, but I'm so used to OE 6's UI and menus that making the switch has not
been painless.  For a time I did mail in Thunderbird and news in OE 6, but
that was just too much of a pain to use different programs for these two
uses.

I don't know if OE has any free add-ons that make spam filtering and its
rules "language" more sophisticated.  I did download a couple but
haven't ever tried them.

Thanks,

Gary
