Why do you need to wildcard the username portion of the e-mail address?
You don't care what it is. Just specify the domain ("@abc.com.sg").

What is "it" that won't allow you to specify a domain? What is the
rule that you currently have defined? If including the "@" sign
triggers the wizard to require a username, what happens when you omit
the "@" (as Ben mentioned)?

Outlook doesn't have wildcards. Use the "with specific words in the sender's
address" condition and specify "abc.com.sg" as trhe specific words.
