Block Foreign Junk with Vista

Here’s another handy little facility you might not have come across in Windows Vista. If, like me, you get a fair number of Spam messages each day written in Chinese, Japanese, Latvian or even German, and you know they can’t possibly be from anyone that you know, then you can tell Vista’s email program Windows Mail to get rid of them automatically. Just go to Tools > Junk E-Mail Options and select the International tab and you can choose to block emails from specific countries, and/or messages containing foreign language or character sets.
