So, what are some words that you'd put in a fairly aggressive spam filter, one that's going to send all spam to a folder, where I can scan over it to make sure it isn't Real Mail before I delete it?

so far i have penis/enlargement/horny/webcam/viagra.

any other common spam subject line words? i'm thinking of "inkjet" and "credit" maybe as well. how about "diploma"?

(re my current mood: being driven crazy in loco parentis, also irritated cos I can't get streaming internet radio to work. will probably go watch Cold Case and knit.)

diploma by itself is fine, this thing picks up subject line words. anything that "get/earn your diploma" would pick up would be picked up by diploma alone!

other than that... see my reply above to patchwolf. i'm too lazy to get a REAL spamkiller. i was just fooling around with mail tools to see how much i could screen out of this one cluttered inbox i have. (not the one I get lj replies in.) it's an experiment, and if it reduces the amount of spam i have to sort thru by 50% or so, it'll have earned its keep.
