I've decided to fight back by automatically trashing any new spam that comes to me by creating a filter for doing so for any message based upon the information for making a filter for it. I do this while in the message summary list for the inbox.

When on the line for an obviously spam msg, not from a business with which I've given permission to communicate, I press alt+s for Special, followed by f for make filter. Since the filter dialog already has enough information grabbed from the message to identify the sender and the subject, I just press alt+d to go to the radio button to delete the msg to trash, then alt+c to create the filter.

Would anyone please advise me if there is a way to make the filter, once it is created, remove the message upon which it is based so the user does not have to delete the message manually after creating a filter for future spam?
