I just verified that hotmail, yahoo, and netscape, at least, all DO require the first character to not only not be a number, but actually to be a letter. Perhaps this is better: header FROM_INVALID_FREEMAIL_USER From =~ /^[^a-z].*(yahoo|netscape|msn|aol|angelfire|usa|([hg]otmail|opera|eudora|dreame|tan|turbo|cara)mail)\.(com|net)/ Fixed the angelfire mispeling, too. -- Charlie Watts [EMAIL PROTECTED] Frontier Internet, Inc. http://www.frontier.net/ _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
