I have used the following(lifted from Matthew Byng-Maddick):
# trap known spam massmailers
if $h_x-mailer matches "(diffondi|Prospect Mailer|Aureate Group Mail|\
Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.1712.3|CyberCreek Avalanche|\
Super-Duper-FastMail|commercialmail|Mozilla 4.55|Sparc12|\
Dynamic Opt-In Emailer|Floodgate|Extractor|Aristotle|MassE-Mail|\
e-Merge|Inet_Mail_Out|MailKing|PLAUZIUM|DMailer|jfmailer|\
Opt-In Lightning|E-mail sender|Power CGI Bulk System|MultiMailer|\
Copia emailFacts|MailXSender|007 Direct Email Easy|eGroups Message
Poster)"
then
seen finish
endif
The Mozilla and Outlook Express rules are correct, they reference
versions that were never released, and bulkmailers have been known
to use those strings.
