Hello. Thank you for your technical support, but my problem is solved.
It is not necessary any more to send me an e-mail.
Cordially.

Well, that would involve the software being able to identify the
language. It's theoretically possible, I guess -- some
wordprocessors,
like MS Word, do it -- but a bit computing-intensive: the program
would
have to check a fair sample of each message's body against a
spellchecker dictionary or something similar, and act if it does (or
does not) achieve a set percentage of "hits." I'm unaware of an
attempt
to add this ability to TB, SM or any other e-mail client.
Yes. I think some Apple apps - Mail.app springs to mind - will ID
the
language as you type and switch to the corresponding dictionary for
auto-correction. Which was a surprise to me the first time I saw
that
happen as I was typing a paragraph in Spanish.
However, you appear to be mostly wanting to get rid of undesirable
messages in foreign languages. Wouldn't training the antispam
filter to
consider those as spam be enough to cut down on the annoyance?
Mostly I want to filter usenet spam - I have a series of filters
set up
to explicitly delete porn-spammers (which was an interesting
exercise to
set up in and of itself) that work very well, however, ones in
foreign
languages still slip through from time to time. And seeing as I
can't
speak dirty in seven languages...
...the easier thing to do would be to just delete any incoming
post or
e-mail that *isn't* in a language of my choosing. Especially
seeing as
I can't read them anyway, spam or not.
The only way you could nail them is by the character set, and I
discovered recently that that can result in false positives. Is it
worth the hassle? Do you get enough Tagalong / Swahili spam to
make it
worth setting up special rules for it?
If I can't read it then it won't distract me. Apart from that: "In
Chris Ilias we trust" and all that. This group is moderated.

...that's actually a very good idea - thanks. I can certainly set
up a
set of rules containing language-reserved characters.
I think it's actually "Tagolog"...though mostly what I'd like to
get rid
of is the Euro-porn stuff that gets spammed to a lot of usenet groups.
What I have set up now does a good job, but sometimes the odd - and I
mean *odd* - post slips through my current filter set.
