You'll need to use a 3rd party tool, trying to create a rule to catch all
the funky spellings and embedded code is impossible.

I saw nothing in the Rules Help relating to scan of the message body.
Would appreciate any tips on how to define a rule that will scan the
message body for a user-defined spam-string.
So, you can't see the "with specific words in the message body" condition?
I missed it. Eyes are not what they used to be. Thanks.
So I use the wizard to create a rule: if "Replica Watches" found,
delete message. Rule active.
I had saved the last spam from days ago. So, I forward it to
myself to test.
And it failed. Left the forwarded spam with "Replica Watches"
in the inbox.
But wait! If I copy, paste into an editor, "Replica Watches" becomes:
Re ubx pl cmb ic gop a ygp Wa nuk tch snt es
So the garbage-spamsters are doing some kind of coding.
Should I try, create a rule for such code? Think it'd do any
good?
I only need something that works.
http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/ works for a lot of people.
Or should I pursue program above?
Thx,
