When I saw the original post I was thinking of returning all the stuff
that was of no use, html, vcards etc that some emailers send me with a
note saying, I have returned all this to you becasue I don't want
it :-)

Now i LIKE the idea of that :o)

All of a sudden i wander if i should be paying attention to this thread -
LOL!

I did something similar with Procmail a while back.  I had some quite
complex rules to detect the mime type - if it's not multipart let it
through, block html if it's multipart/alternative but not if it's a
proper attachment, block every mimetype that make mention of Microsoft
(complex by my standards, anyway; it was quite simple by procmail
 standards - procmail can make perl look straightforward ;). I never
managed to get it to return emails, though, just to filter them out.

Think I'll have another look at that now...
