Might want to combine into a meta rule with existing NSL_RCVD_FROM_USER rule:

header         NSL_RCVD_FROM_USER       Received =~ /from User [\[\(]/
describe       NSL_RCVD_FROM_USER       Received from User

The above are particularly effective (here) against 419 / bank phish type emails sent from compromised webmail accounts. Hit rate is not great, but the FP count is near zero.

Ned, I put those into my sandbox when you first suggested them and they are performing _quite_ well.
