Anyone has a generic rule to match "stuck keyboard" spam like this one?

You could use the 3.0 antidrug rules and add a + after each character

That was my first thought as well, but then you need to do it for each drug or each word that might be "stuck-keyed". However, when I checked my Bayes db, I found lots of words like these:

answeeeer
emaaaail
peeeeeople
annoooooooying
blooooock
filteeeeeeer
gooooood
haaaaaaving
looooooooking
meessaageeeeees
messaaaaages
moooooreeeee
nooooo
prooooooblems
throooough
tireeeeeed
Heeeereee
aduuuult

So... this would turn into a never-ending reactive "whack-a-mole" job. And, also, when looking at the original message, I noticed that the sender asked for a "generic" rule that did it.....
