Well to set up that example as an alist you would do something like this in
your .gnus file.  I guess the fine art in this is to construct a regular
expression which will catch the banners you are tryng to kill off.

[Trying again - word wrap did something to my last effort]


(set gnus-article-address-banner-alist

    '(("@yahoo\\.com" . "^__________________+\nDo you Yahoo!\\?\n.*\n.*\n")

    ("@hotmail\\.com\\|@msn.com" . 
"^_________________________________________________________________\n.*MSN 
.*\n.*\n")

    ("@netscape\\.net" . 
"^__________________________________________________________________\n.*Netscape
 Network.*\n.*\n.*\n\n.*AOL Instant Messenger.*\n.*\n")))
