Rule - no text in body

Hi

How do I set up a rule to delete mail with no text in the dody of the e
mail. So it will go to the deleted folder

I have started to get spam (lots) with just a jpeg attachment and no text.

I can't find the template in the rules section for this

Thanks for any help you can give

Think in reverse. Delete/move all e-mails EXCEPT those that have something
in the body. If English is your primary language and the only one in which
you accept e-mails, then test if the e-mail is missing vowels.

- Apply this rule after the message arrives
move it to the Junk folder
and mark it as read
except if the body contains "a" or "e" or "i" or "o" or or "u" or "y"
and stop processing more rules
- Enable the auto-archive option in Outlook.
- Right-click on the Junk folder and enable its archiving settings to
permanently delete items over, say, 3 days old.

Rather than delete the e-mail (which could be from someone you know or in an
e-mail that you are actually expecting to receive), move it to the Junk
folder (and optionally mark-as-read so you aren't bothered with a bolded
Junk folder node in the tree view) and which auto-deletes anything over 3
days old.

I mention English because it's difficult to get more than 2 or 3 words
strung together that don't contain vowels. However, there are non-English
languages that have lots of words without vowels (well, they're not written
in the words despite how they're pronounced).
