Default Rule that can test for cyrillic or asian fonts?

It seems that 90% of my spam these days is in either of these fonts.
Is it possible to write a rule that will put a message in a folder
based on it's language or fonts?

Thanks,

Version of Outlook? 2003/2007 can block them using the junk filter (blocked
encodings option). To use a rule you need to use a rule for header contains
words - look in the header for lines like this: Content-Type: text/plain;
charset="windows-1252", where the charset is for the types you want to
block.

http://a4esl.org/c/charset.html has a list of character sets but I recommend
looking at the message you want to block and see what the Charest is.

Outlook 2003 and 2007 can already test for that in the Junk E-mail options.

Well... Go figure! I've been using Outlook (2003 by the way) for a few
years now. Dunno why I never chose to realize that.

Thanks, all!
