You can use * at the begining of the server url to match multiple server. For example, *.irc.server.net will match foo.irc.server.net and also bar.irc.server.net

|-----|------------------------|------------------|
| 0   | *.IRC.Worldnet.Net     | #NewbieContest   |
| 1   | irc.hackerzvoice.net   | #rtfm            |
