Have you tried using scores instead? The idea is to give scores to 
messages based on certain characteristics. All scores are added, so you 
would filter based on the total score. To avoid the space problem you 
would define two (or more) score rules where each rule matches each part 
of the From field that you identified for messages you want to filter.
