I find that I am now on a few "spam lists", that I will be stuck with till ???
That said, a quick peek at these messages, shows that although the content
varies, the many of the "people" on the To/CC list, tend to be cropping up
repeatedly.
Since I never expect to receive email from "jblthk4589@somemail.com" (and
similar), I added a few (10) of these repeated "contacts" to a new address book
"Spammed like me".  I was disapointed though, when I went to my message filters,
hoping to find the option to...
If ["To or cc"] | ["Is in my address book"] | ["Spammed like me"]

I can't use the "sender" option, as it is randomly generated, but I can almost
guarentee that my spammer, isn't going to place me on a fresh random list every
time, and thus the To/cc option would be great.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a message Filter
2. Select [To:] or [CC:] or [To or cc] as the "item" being checked
3. Note that the options available for [Sender] are NOT available for To/CC

Actual Results:  
I could not create the desired message filter, or similar.

Expected Results:  
Pressuming that the "is in my address book/is not in my address book" filters,
compare the "from" email address, against the selected address book, then I
think the ability to do so, on the To:/Cc: fields would also be helpful.

I'm still on Mozilla 1.4.  If this issue has been resolved with 1.5, please
ignore this feature request.
Confirming.  "Is in my Address Book" and "Isn't in my Address Book" should be
added to "To or CC:", "To:" and "CC:".  "begins with" and "ends with" should be
added to the "To or CC:" field as well.
