Setup a Special Text String Rule in Xamime

From time to time you may want to setup some special text based rules for xamime to trap "cagey" spam or other unwanted email.
Below is a sample of how to add a Spam Check test for an email which carries a "geocities" http link in its body (These are generally spam).

Choose an approriate acl to place the rule in.

Add 2 new "Text String Test" as below....
Text = http://.*.geocities.com Comment = Probably Spam - Geocities Link!! Test Mode = Deny Text = http://geocities Comment = Probably Spam - Geocities Link!! Test Mode = Deny
The important thing to note is the regexp syntax, especially for special characters.

The above text aims to catch any link which is a subdomain of geocities.com

The reason is that in regex, a * means "any multiple of the -previous- character.

Thanks to Paul Daniels, author of Xamime, for the solution.
