Thanks, I think the FAQ answered by question. Reading the information at 
http://www.spamcop.net/fom-serve/cache/304.html, there's no mention of 
wild cards for matching, and I'd assumed they could be used. No telling 
how the asterisks in my blacklist entries were interpreted. I'll have to 
go back and modify all my personal blacklist filters accordingly. 
This'll be something of a job since some of the most annoying spammers I 
filter have quite a few variations of email address. Surprisingly, just 
about all of them seemed to have been working with the asterisks 
present, but I see it's nothing I can count on.

Thanks again.
