This can be done using rules
H~com\.cn:nul would dump all mail originating from cn, we are currently 
doing this (using spambox instead of nul) with all .ar domains.  The only 
valid mail coming through any .ar domain happens to be for this list which 
is why H~list.ipswitch.com:main exists further up the rules file.

There are two draw backs to using rules over the kill file:

1.  The message must actually be received before the rule can take effect 
(bandwidth).
2.  The offending relay assumes that the message was successfully delivered 
to the intended victim.

With the kill file, the message bounces and eventually the signal to noise 
ratio improves.  As such, wild cards in the kill file would be a welcome 
addition.
