So, install Firefox which will not automatically load images or "click" 
on links for you, and don't ever click on a link in the email address. 
if you get mail from your "bank" saying your account is broken into and 
you need to change your password, open a new browser window and type 
"www.mybank.com" in the address bar.

Spam is spam, and SpamAssassin catches the type you describe.

Any chance those who care about spam could subscribe to (oh, I dunno) an 
anti-spam email list?  :)
