Message Filtering on IMC

I setup the message filtering in the IMC with a turf directory. I added 4 domains listed in this order:
@Easywinning.com
@escriptions.roil.net
@reply.pm0.net
@vmadmin.com

The only one being filtered is vmadmin.com. The others are getting through.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks
 
You have blocked the "reply" address server for pm0.net, not the sending server. I have use the filtering successfully for hundreds of "spam" address domains.
I am VERY familiar with: lists.pm0.net, post.pm0.net, offers.pm0.net, and variations like this so I blocked ALL from these "spam kings" with just @pm0.net. I actually haven't blocked Easywinning.com (yet) but I have the other two blocked the same way, @roi1.net and @vmadmin.com so I know those addresses will be blocked.

(Now I just have to block the spam from @msn.com and @yahoo.com while allowing our customers to still send mail using their accounts on those domains...)

Thanks Alex,
I didn't know you could truncate the domain to just @pm0.net and @roi1.net. It is working great now.
On the MSN and yahoo spam, I'm going to see if i can filter at my firewall before it hits my internet e-mail server.

We have customers that use @hotmail.com and @yahoo.com addresses, so we must permit these domains through. Unfortunately the spammers are also using "temp" names (172635@yahoo.com, 172636@yahoo.com...) to send junk through, if anyone knows a good way to block incoming mail by text searching the body, that is my last resort to block spam from these domains.
