Bobby,

MailWatch only works for perfect matches (no wild cards) on a single 
email address. Check the archives for Julian's reasons why this must be.

You might consider setting up rule sets for the message that need wild 
card entries. For example

a rules set for Spam Checks = that exempts the wild card entries.

Than you could use MailWatch's checks for the "must perfectly match" 
entries and have a back door for wildcards.

Best regards,

Steve
