Those look like they ought to work. One thing, though I doubt it's
causing your problem, is that you ought to be escaping literal dots with
a backslash. So the first recipe should look like this:

:0
* ^From:.*reply\.pm0\.net
/dev/null

Otherwise the regexp code will interpret the dots as the "any character"
wildcard. Which, of course, should still match successfully for these
messages, so it doesn't explain why the recipes are failing.

Verbose logging may help to figure out what's going on.
