Shame mine didn't work. I was quite pleased with the implementation, the 
rule was quite succinct. It hit a couple I tried it on, but I guess the 
spammers didn't take that path.

Guess I'll leave writing rules to others in the future, not much point 
writing code if it doesn't do anything useful :-)
