sorry, i don't have an answer for as to why it works off/on, unless possibly
the server gets to busy and doesn't catch the msg before it gets thru the
queue, but on the side of the first colon, i don't have it in any of my
rules and they all seem to be working, or maybe i'm just not getting any of
those messages that i blocked anymore. hmmm.

I've been away...
Isn't the first colon needed to separate an external rule file?
And why would it work off and on ?

i don't think you need the first colon
H~spam_header:nul

i'm not really sure if you can send to nul, but i haven't tried it myself
either.

Am I filtering this correctly?

My rule is H~:spam_hdr:NUL

My spam_hdr.rul file contains tons of (spam topics|spam senders|etc)

Won't this check both the from field and the subject
against the contents of the spam_hdr.rul file ?

It seems to work sporadically.
