I think you should add the word 'pattern' in your score line. Take
a look at this line, which i use to kill excesive crossposts:
-9 pattern Newsgroups [^,]+,[^,]+,[^,]+,[^,]+,[^,]+,[^,]+,[^,]+,.*
The bad news is that I don't know how these pattern formula's work.
I assume it's some kind of unix thing. You probably have to use such
a formula for your wildcard.
