Ok, some nutjob spammer is using the same basic email address at Gmail, but he's doing it in such a way that I'd have to block all of Gmail to stop him. Here's an example of some of the emails he's doing.

st.o.pspa.mf.ir.sto.pa.p.a@gmail.com
s.t.op.pamfi.rd.top.a.pa@gmail.com
stop.p.a.m.fir.sto.pap.a@gmail.com

IE, it's all the same stopspamfirstopapa, but with periods all over the place to break it up. How do I filter this out, or at least let the spam mod catch it? Right now I'm doing user admin auths in order to keep them from getting through.

I could adjust the filter to remove any dots before the @ sign if you like?
