Yeah I never saw that email. Also there was some others involved in the last
BIG tweak. So I think some of these (?:com|net|biz) things are hitting me. I
didn't tweak them all myself. I check on all those so that doesn't happen.
Bear with me while I fix any of these. It's a long story :)

Lists, lists, lists. :)  I can't tell you how many emails I get asking for
the list of domains and a script. Here is the deal folks, it will _CRUSH_
your server to generate off a list. This is hand edited to run faster. There
is no sexy script that will create the MAXIMUM sleak regex rule. There are
some nice ones, but they won't "see" what a human will in seconds.

That said:

Gary F. has posted a script to rip out all the domains into a list from
Bigevil. Feel free to use that to pull a list out of Bigevil. The
reg2rule.pl script is also floating around. Been posted many times and I
think it is on the wiki. Feel free to generate 2000+ seperate rules using
that. I just hope you don't get a lot of mail traffic on your servers ;)

Sorry, yes I'm cranky today. Lusers won't leave me alone, and I'm about to
use my wife's ibook as a frisbee!
