I don't know if this helps or not but, lately, I have put the following:

reject if %RPD% in *opt*.xyz
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.top
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.science
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.net.in
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.work
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.cricket
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.pics
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.webcam
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.link
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.edu
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.party
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.click
reject if %RPD% in *opt*.review

in my wcSapFilter.txt.

I have been saving thousands of spam email addys for some time now and have
been putting them in the badrcpt.txt in the WC5/DATA folder.

The same spam email addys are reoccuring in the .party, .click, and .review
domains.
