Well, given that Suresh originally wrote

then yes, you should use OR so that either condition will trigger it.

To make the 'match' fit Suresh' condition exactly, I think you would need

    {match {$h_Received:} {\N\.mr\.outblaze\.com\N}} \


(The \N...\N prevents string expansion, which saves you messing around
with doubling the other backslashes).

Of course, you will get false positives on things like
    somehost.mr.outblaze.compost.com
- you need to decide how much that would matter to you.


Untested, YMMV, HTH, etc
