The way I do it is to write a filter, where I can list the various ways 
of identifying the source I want to plonk, frex by address or anything 
from a domain. Then I wrote a rule which applies the filter to all 
subscribed groups, and marks read and deletes any hits. It's a step more 
involved than the Articles|Plonk route, but I don't need to fiddle with 
regex and it applies where I want it as well.

HTH!
