    I actually use multiple deny files, but it could all be in one;
    this is from one of the other files:

^(To|Cc):.*<.*@rogers.com>,.*<.*@rogers.com>,.*<.*@rogers.com>,.*<.*@rogers.com>
^(To|Cc):.*<.*@torfree.net>,.*<.*@torfree.net>,.*<.*@torfree.net>,.*<.*@torfree.net>

    It could probably be shortened with an ERE, but that requires too
    much unnecessary thought.
