We have opened a public list of regular expressions that are designed to match 2 different criteria.

1) Addresses which match DUL Forms, ie xxx.xxx.xxx.pool.adsl.domain.com
2) Addresses which match a source which has been reported as sending unsolicited bulk mail (NON-DUL)

You want to anchor all your patterns from the beginning of the host name. For instance, just \.host\.telemar\.net\.br$ by itself cannot match efficiently, if a thousand or so such patterns are assembled into a single pattern. The backtracking will kill you. You have to get the beginning anchored as well. Thus, you really want (in this particular case):

  ^[0-9]+\.host\.telemar\.net\.br
