let see... it starts with Resent- or Apparently-
or  To Cc or Bcc
then comes ":" then whatever it comes and finally it
requieres my user name...
ok.
that's what I was searching for.
Thanks!

I always have an alias: eduardo.viruena
would it be ok if I add

 # Mail not addressed to me.
 :0
 * $!^((Resent-|Apparently-)?(To|Cc|Bcc)):.*(${LOGNAME}|eduardo.viruena)
 $MAILDIR/Spam-folder


thanks Warren!

	Eduardo.
