How can I filter (send to trash) all non-english messages?
I am getting an overload of oriental language (Chinese) and slavic langauge (Russian or similar) emails. I a perfect world Thunderbird would filter all non-english messages into my trash folder or block them. Does anyone have any ideas?? Thank you

... filter them before they even hit my inbox.
Then you'd need to filter on the server. E.g. Gmail has a pretty good spam filter. Or you can use a third party software running on your PC filtering your mail prior to Thunderbird getting it. Both would be outside the scope of this forum.

I think your best bet is to train your junk mail filter. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Junk_Mail_Controls
Thanks so much for your reply. That is certainly a fix but it will only work from "repeat" senders. I will start marking my junk and set up a filter for junk mail but I'd still like to be able to filter them before they even hit my inbox. Thanks again,
