I have a Mail rule set "Send any attachment" contains "gif" to be  
moved to the Junk. I read about this somewhere else and I can't tell  
if this works because I don't receive any Junk which contains gifs,  
my ISP catches them all or else I prevent them downloading in the  
first place as I have my size limit set to 7 kb and the few junk  
mails which get thru my ISP's filters, easily recognisable with  
headings such as 'Re(6)' or something like that, I delete before  
downloading.
