If your list contains a list of addresses to filter on, then the
parameter to use is as you've done 'any string match'.

It will do this, but remember that there should be no blank lines in
your text file. A space in a new line will be considered a string to
match.

My suggestion is to not delete mail in this way, especially if you're
uncertain about the efficacy of your filtering. The worst thing about
a spammer can do to you is to make you lose legitimate mail. You
should really examine these messages before deleting them. Why not
use the ignore option. In this way you can examine the ignored
messages using the dispatcher and then delete and download as you
desire. This would work especially well if you normally delete your
messages from the server after a download.
