But shouldn't

* ^From:.*<[0-9]+@

deliver rather than delete mail that has a dot in the account field?  I am
trying to delete mail of the form:

Joe <123456(_at_)spamhaus(_dot_)com>, not

Joe <123456(_dot_)123456(_at_)spamhaus(_dot_)com>

But I suspect Ralph has pointed us the the next spammer technique.
Urrrrrgh!  Time to prepare for it.

BTW:  So far, I received only the one spam with a From: header line in this
format.  I do not plan to implement the recipe until it recurs.

caution in deploying something like this.  As an "FYI", Pagenet uses
something like 1231234567(_dot_)1234567(_at_)pagenet(_dot_)net for an address. 
Yes, you
probably won't see this often, but it can happen.
