You can just use
JohnDoe@

OE does string matching. It will look for that string in the address.

If you were to put the * in, OE will look for that literal character

For
example, if I add "JohnDoe@*.net" to my "block sender list," will
OE6
block
John Doe's email from any domain with a ".net" address? Or
"JohnDoe@*.com"
?

May the asterisk wild card be used to "not download" or "delete
from
server"
. . . all of John Doe's email message if I also add
"JohnDoe@*.net" and
JohnDoe@*.com ?

Thanks for responses.
