There must be an easy way to count the number of addresses in the To
field...How would I do for instance if I want to trash every email to
/dev/null that is being send to more than 5 people? I have heard
about the score technique but I have no clue how to use it...

5 is a little low to /dev/null it!  Especially if you have friends/family  
who send occasional `updates' on life, etc.

It might be a good scoring technique, but I wouldn't use it exclusively and  
I wouldn't /dev/null it

But that's me
