Pop3 Rule set

If expression body matches "*koi8-r*" DeleteOnServer ""

Are you sure that the ones slipping through use this in the body of the message instead of the headers?  In addition, you should walk before you run.  Work with one filter based on the "Subject" until you know that the system is working correctly.  Once you know it is working then you can try the other filters.

I have an tools - pop3 rule set which says

If this regular expression
*koi8-r*
Action: Delete on server

I get loads of foreign rubbish with *koi8-r* (I can see "charset="koi8-r"" in raw view) but the messages keep coming and are not deleted on server. Am I doing something wrong.

Not sure.  Need to see the actual filter.  If you are just looking in the headers and the  string is in the body text it will be missed.

please find attached a jpg of the rule.

Better still! How do I attach an image of the rule. I've made a jpg of it but cannot do the next bit which is send it to you.

Do not need a JPG of a text file.  Open you POP3 filter set and paste the string pertaining to the rule into a reply.  You can paste the whole thing if it's not that large.

Found it eventually!

If expression body matches "*koi8-r*" DeleteOnServer ""

it came from a file called popspam.pnp

The whole file looks like below

 new pop3 rules
If header "S" contains "Viagra" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "S" contains "You look really stupid alistair" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "S" is "How  To Enlarge Penis Size" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "S" is "Gain 3+ Inches In Length." DeleteOnServer ""
If header "S" is "magic helpers" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "S" is "No more credit card debt" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "S" contains "what a stupid face you have here alistair" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "S" contains "We sell joy!" DeleteOnServer ""
If expression both matches "koi8-r" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "F" contains "VIAGRA ® Official Site" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "S" contains "You look really stupid alistair" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "S" contains "Dear alistair@ajwest.co.uk" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "F" contains "deanin.noone@hotmail.co.uk" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "F" contains "CNN" DeleteOnServer ""
If header "S" contains "CNN Alerts: My Custom Alert" DeleteOnServer ""
If expression body matches "*NickName: TatianaG*" DeleteOnServer ""
If expression body matches "*Hi! I am lonely girl, who is looking for chat with you :)*" DeleteOnServer ""
If expression body matches "*koi8-r*" DeleteOnServer ""
If expression body matches "*Buy Vairga right now!*" DeleteOnServer ""
If expression body matches "*fashionable replica watches*" DeleteOnServer ""
If expression body matches "*To stop ALL email from FOX News Network Newsletters*" DeleteOnServer ""

 

 

I think I have done something fundamentally wrong as none of the rules seem to have the desired effect!
