How to import/paste a list of email addressess into a filter
I want to create a filter to match any of the 20 addresses on my list. Rather than manually repeating the 'add rule' 19 times, I hoped to import all 20 at once.
Creating a filter with 'to' and putting a comma separated list there doesn't seem to work; the addresses won't be matched. I can't find a config file to manually edit in my profile directory for filters, or an extension to create this filter.
My end-goal is to add this 'blacklist' of my old e-mail addresses that have been leaked to a spam filter. These messages already end up in my spam folder by a rule at my provider, but I want to mark them as spam too, so I can sort through the spam folder more easily to find false positives.
Thanks in advance!

Create a new address book and add the 20 contacts (by drag and drop), then make a filter with the rule From + is in my address book + <name of new book>. Add new contacts to the book by clicking the star in the message header, twice, to select the target book.
