How can I eliminate all emails that are in Spanish?
We have had several virus's all atached to spanish emails. We receive approx. 6 spanish emails weekly. I want it to end. Thanks for any help you give. Ken

Ordinarily, with a language based filter, I'd look for a header, but since the Spanish language will use a western or unicode character set, or encoding, in common with other languages that use a Latin character set, there won't be a trivial distinction based on headers or charsets.
I'd suggest you build a filter that looks for distinguishing characters, such as ¿,¡ or ñ and then do something with those messages. I'd mark them (with a tag or a star) or move them to a folder rather just outright delete, until I was confident that the filter is behaving predictably and correctly. You may find some recurrent distinctive words specific to the Spanish language that may also be detected by your filter.
