It is a little late to run a spam filter once the mail has reached your
email client. I am unfamiliar with Windows Mail, but if its own spam
filtering facilities are inadequate for you, and your mail server won't do
anything for you, then your should consider upgrading to something like
Thunderbird.
Alternatively you could use Perl to filter spam from the mail server
before your client retrieves it. Take a look at
http://search.cpan.org/
and search for POP3 (or IMAP if your server sup****ts it). The Spamassassin
modules may also be of interest.
HTH,
