Can't you put these in your kill.lst file:
*hosting.com

I wholeheartedly agree with this request!

Specific to the url-domain-bl.txt file, I'd like to be able to filter out domains like 
*hosting.com.  I know it's dangerous to use
wildcards, but it's sometimes worth the risk.  For example, I get tons of spam from 
1001hosting.com, 2001hosting.com,
9001hosting.com, etc., and they're all from different IPs that rotate daily and the 
emails themselves have nothing consistent to
filter on.  It's horrible.  Even adding whole IP ranges to the SMTP ACL is 
ineffective.  The only thing that would work well is by
adding that wildcard domain to the url-domain-bl.txt file, because that "pattern" is 
the only consistent thing about this spam.  I
must have 30 variants of this domain there now...

Also, I'd love a weighted filter for mail sent from international TLD's (determined by 
a reverse lookup so as to eliminate forged
mail-froms).  We almost never get legitimate mail from non-US mail servers.  I wish I 
could break down the stats of the countries
that send to us, but I don't have a tool to do that (suggestions?).

Feature request:

Support for partial domain name in the access list.

as an example, if I wanted to block all mail from Mexico, I would only have to
enter mx  or dotmx in the access list.  example"mx   REJECT"

In the Linux mail systems, entering the mx in the access table for Postfix will
block all domains ending with that string.  Example
1.2.3.4.adsl.monstermail.universidad.mx
With Sendmail, the DOT is required.

another example would be "videotron.ca"  which would then block all email from
any videotron origin, even though the domain string is much longer than that.

Did I express this clearly enough?

Doug
