We try fairly hard to block non-en.  Any sensible MUA sets a
Content-Type header identifying the character set, and that's easily
workable.

Considering ISO-8859-1 and us-ascii are the only two character sets we
*want* to allow, well, there goes that idea.

aqt the risk of being pedantic, why ISO-8859-1 ??? Why not block everything except us-ascii ??

(I'm not sure if Content-Transfer-Encoding is relevant here?)

X-Priority is set by Outlook and co.  The default is Medium, or 3 I
think.  The only time I've ever seen it set higher is on spam, or
in-house corporate use (arguably the same thing).

And yes, I'm mildly horrified that I hadn't added it to the filters
earlier.

I'm not complaining, just asking the question - people seem to have taken it into their heads that I'm some sort of overbearing ogre - I assure you Dazza looks more like Shrek that I......:-)
