You have to check the Path:-header. Also there is a small problem
within your regexp: the first star!

I really don't know the behaviour of regexp, if the first character of
a regexp is '*'. I assume that you'd like to match 'every
NNTP-Posting-Host which contains somewhere los-angeles.ca.ms.uu.net'.

Simply write either

- -1 pattern NNTP-Posting-Host .*.los-angeles.ca.ms.uu.net

or even more simple

- -1 NNTP-Posting-Host .los-angeles.ca.ms.uu.net

The second will also work, because in fact you don't need in this case
a regular expression.
