Thanks for that.  I wonder if I have missed something here.  I see your
rules are of the form:

        From:   asihome.com     yes

A while ago I asked if this was a valid format for the spam.blacklist.rules
file and was led to believe that only addresses (e-mail or IP) could be
used in this file, but not domains.  Is this something that has
subsequently been changed with MS?  Can wildcards be used?  eg:

        From:   *.asihome.com     yes

to catch subdomains but not the domain itself?

Secondly: Are these the domains of the mail servers sending the spam, or
are they the domains in the senders' e-mail addresses?
