Yes & No.
Since I am doing a whois on the IP addresses (from received or originating IP), I'm finding that most of the spam is coming from other countries. So, in Thunderbird, I filter by least common denominator of the IP address.
So if IP address range is 145.165.0.0 - 145.165.255.255 - then - I filter for [145.165.
Also, if IP address does not work, I filter by email domain, keywords, phrases, etc.
So to double check my settings, I clean the trash folder and run my filter definition. If more emails get moved to the trash folder then I expect, then I have to step back and regroup.
That's a lot of work, and you can make mistakes. And a mistake of erasing a good email is very, very, bad. Simply use SA and forget it all. It simply works. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 11.2 x86_64 "Emerald" GM (Elessar))
