Ahhh...reading this thread just makes me appreciate the benefits of using MailWasher. It gets rid of my spam and lets me look at all of my email while it's STILL ON THE SERVER...I can see who it's from, if it has an attachment, preview it and get rid of it before I even launch my email application. It (when used with a good AV program) is as close to an invisible condom for your email as you'll ever get.
