ALL messages NOT specifically addressed to me (or already filtered out
to a mailing list pseudo newsgroup) get filtered to my SPAM pseudo
newsgroup..... this is accomplished by my second to last filters
looking for messages specifically to me and filtering that to a
"to.me" folder. The last filter is set to match anything an assume it
is spam. Finally my batch file which runs "import" checks if the
"to.me" folder exists (meaning that i got new mail), and move/appends
it on to my inbox folder.

Works well, just a bit complicated.
