Can the wildcard cross the dots, or is it constained to "between the 
dots"?

I.e., can the wildcard stand for all of "sld.tld" (cross the dots) or 
must it only stand for sld or tld (between the dots). I cannot determine 
the answer from the SIMS Guide.

For clarification, here is a concrete example:

Must I use the following to stop spam from EqualaMail, which uses at 
least 3 different top-level domains (tld) so far, as well as many 
different secondary-level domains (sld):

equalamail.*.net = error
equalamail.*.com = error
equalamail.*.us  = error

Or, can I just use the following:

equalamail.* = error

Since EqualaMail uses different top and secondary level domains, I would 
like to use the following to filter both the tld and the sld , but only 
one wildcard is allowed, so I can't:

equalamail.*.* = error.

Sincerely,
Michael
