As I wrote in the email you answered to, paste it into the sorting
office. Open the sorting office, expand Incoming mail and hit ctrl-v.

When viewing the filters I posted, I see that the line of words to
filter on in the filter called "Spam" has been divided over a number
of lines. Make sure to edit this to be just one line before you paste
it into the sorting office.

Create a filter with regular expression activated and use '\s' in the
filtering string. That matches one white-space character. As you can
see in my "Spam 2"-filter I'm using '\s\s\s\s' which matches all mail
with four or more white-space characters in a row.
