I get tons of spam in my mailbox, mostly from job sites who continue to send me job listings months after I found a job and I've supposedly unsubscribed from their "service". These e-mails can be anything up to 200k in size and since I'm on dial up I was looking for a better solution than just filtering and sending to trash in K-Mail since I still have to download the things currently. Is there any way I can get the mail headers first and then just trash the e-mail or do I really have to download these things?
Try taking a look at SpamAssassin. Be warn though you do need a decent CPU power (something like p200 or above) to get the mail checked for spam etc.
If that's not to your liking, I could recommend you to look at
http://www.linuxbrit.co.uk/downloads/dot.procmailrc
Which is basically(!) procmail work. I have my own version of procmailrc that I created from linuxbrit version. Give it a go. Be warned though, make sure you leave the emails on the server before finally going ahead.
