Depends, in most (decent) emailclients you need to "teach" the spamfilters. So, I've done that and by now the filter is pritty accurate (only 1 or 2 mails out of +-30 aren't reconized)...
Every time you tag a mail as being spam, the filter gets better and betterin my mailclient; The big annoyence with this virus is that it has so many variants and texts that it sends, so the inteligent automatic filters (the ones you need to teach) take a relative long time in reconizing all these... (a normal standard spammail can be reconized 100% correct after tagging a couple of the same spammails)
All this of course on clientside, it would be much better if there was a spamchecker/filter and virusfilter on the mailserver so you didn't get these in the first place.... but then again I like to know what is being send to my mailaccount, even if it is spam...
