Todd,

There are 600,426,974,379,824,381,952 ways to spell "Viagra" 
(http://www.americanscientist.org/issues/pub/how-many-ways-can-you-spell-v1g
ra/3) 
and likewise a similar number of ways to obfuscate other words with 6 
letters.

It is a better to target other aspects of the message and even the 
obfuscation techniques themselves than to attempt to go after the actual 
text.

I'm seeing this come through a lot - "CH!l.D P.ORN and P!rate S0ftware".  So
far, the spam filters are catching it ok based on all of the other filters
there.  However, some of them are barely being caught and I'd like to make
sure they don't make it through.  I threw a basic "CONTAINS" filter in for
an exact match, but I can already see them doing different things to make it
through.

Any suggestions on a regular expression?

Hi Everyone -

I'm seeing this come through a lot - "CH!l.D P.ORN and P!rate S0ftware".  So
far, the spam filters are catching it ok based on all of the other filters
there.  However, some of them are barely being caught and I'd like to make
sure they don't make it through.  I threw a basic "CONTAINS" filter in for
an exact match, but I can already see them doing different things to make it
through.

Any suggestions on a regular expression?
