/var/qmail/control/badmailfrom doesn't accept wildcards.
I could solve this problem patching my qmail 1.03 with
flame-patches-1.03-1.6.2.diff from http://www.flame.org/qmail/
it enables a badheaders control file with more flexible rules for blocking
cost?: in my personal experience, a little extra charge in my mail server
(noticeable only at peak hours)
