how to kill on this

1997-02-21 15:39:59
Some idiot has been forging usenet postings as 
wotan(_at_)netcom(_dot_)com(_dot_)

Th from lines usually look like this:

From: wotan(_at_)netcom(_dot_)com (I^Spam therefore I^Am)

The idiot has been using several variants of this.  the one consistent thing
is that he always uses at least one ^ mark.  

Now, some of the spammers are including in the body things like this:

Dear I^Spam

I can kill this crap off with no problem - except for the ^.  I've tried all
of the following in my test filters (all begining with :0 B)

^Spam
\^Spam
.^Spam
.\^Spam

Each resulted in Match not found according to my verbose logs.

TIA
