I filter mine to a suspect folder so that I may segregate those with
specific subjects (mortgage, refinance, credit, assorted body parts)
without losing the good stuff... one of the programming lists I'm on
sometimes discusses credit card validation, for example.

If you can identify certain domains or (less frequently) specific
addresses, those would be good candidates for going directly to the
trash.
