Yes, mine blocks messages that have my address in the header from,
whereas your example would block messages that have my address as the
envelope sender.  I should have mentioned that.

If you're getting mail that has your address as the envelope sender
and the header from, you should block the envelope sender, as I
believe it's a less expensive check.  But the spam I was getting when
I put that rule in had my address in the header from, and an unrelated
address in the envelope sender.
