Or does anyone have > any experience of any legitimate email coming with this? I've seen a few legitimate e-mails come through with messages such as the one you describe above. Unfortunately, they're usually from people like financial advisers and such. Though I haven't seen any that weren't from some kind of bulk mailing. So, if you're just filtering for yourself, have at it. If you're doing this for an isp though, I wouldn't if I were you.
