Writing rules: Looking for text string in HTML Body

[Steve Feldner]

I am trying to fight SPAM by deleting messages that
contain certain text strings in the body. It seems
certain SPAM messages run in streaks and I can get
hundreds of the same message but I am unable to block
them with my SPAM software so I want to write a rule to
delete them. Writing a "normal" rule and selecting:

"with '<TARGET TEXT>' in the body"

may not work on an HTML message if the sender has
disguised that text as follows:

Displayed text: a new home purchase
HTML Code for same: a n<AJZDE>ew home purcha</LAHIOJ>se

How can I filter on HTML code for plain-reading text that
is disguised?

If this is a "New Feature Suggestion", how do I submit
one of those? I haven't done one yet but feel this is a
very important functionality that is sorely needed.

Thanks in advance for any help!!

You can't. Rule filtering occurs before rendering. In fact, I find the
rules useless for HTML of any kind, even if the string I use is not
obfuscated.

one of those? I haven't done one yet but feel this is a
very important functionality that is sorely needed.
