You'll need to come up with a precise definition of "almost entirely
written in caps".  Is that 90%?  95%?  At most 10 lowercase
characters?  At most 10 lowercase characters but at least 60
uppercase?  You'll need to describe a quantitative means of making a
qualitative decision.  Once you have described that (send it to the
list), we can help you write that rule in procmail.

Let's say it's about 90%. If you want an example I could attach
the spam. (Although I don't think this would be a good idea)

Cheers
Martin
