I had to make one more change to get this to work, I had to remove the space after the !~. Here is the final working code: header RELAYCOUNTRY_SENSIBLE X-Relay-Countries!~/^([^[:alpha:]]*(CA|FR|GB|KY|US)[^[:alpha:]]*)+$/ describe RELAYCOUNTRY_SENSIBLE Relayed through a Spammy Country score RELAYCOUNTRY_SENSIBLE 1.0 Thanks to everyone for there help getting this to work. Now every time an email relays through a country not in my very short acceptable list it gets tagged with a point. Not as fine grained control as the normal method, but a much easier way to wack all countries not explicitly called out.
