Now Gmail lets you understand your spam

A new feature in Gmail Labs offers translation of messages written in foreign languages. No doubt, this feature was probably created with good intentions -- such as being able to effortlessly communicate with someone that doesn't speak your language.

Unfortunately, I'm sure that most people are in the same boat as me -- I don't know anyone that doesn't speak English well enough to communicate with me. The only people that need me to understand a different language is spammers.

So how about this Google: Let's add to settings the ability to filter out email that is in languages other than the one you speak? Or, better yet, have an exceptions list if you speak multiple.
