Do you consider the junk-mail filter in Outlook 2003 to be a "real" filter. I've often wondered if I
should stick with it or try something else. It's far from perfect, but I don't know if others are
any better.

Absolutely - a real antijunk filter is going to do much better than rules..
and be easier to maintain.

I have created rules to permanently delete some of the incoming junk

in html format. Messages in the junk mail folders are always
converted automatically to plain text and if I run the rule on them
they do get deleted!

Is it possible to create a macro (or another rule) which would run the
rule(s) to delete these messages once they are in the junk folder in
plain text? If so, I would appreciate your help in creating one as I
have no experience of writing a macro.

I gave up and I am using MailWasher. There are other such programs.
It seems to work a lot better than anything I could come up with.
