Have you guys found a spam filter that catches the ads that are not text, but an image of text? Seems that somebody must make a spam filter that incorporates OCR or other pattern recognition.

Another thing I'd like to see is a spam filter that tracks what other users have tagged as spam. Spammers send millions of identical spams. By the time I see a spam, probably 10 million people have already seen, opened, and tossed it in the spam box. The software can safely assume it is spam.
