regexp-opt cannot handle meta characters like "*". The OP showed such a regexp.

Maybe somthing like this works (untested):

(setq my-gnus-bulk-regexp
      (concat
       "^\\(From:.*@"
       (regexp-opt
	'("maillist.codeproject.com"
	  "papajohns-specials.com"
	  "qomail.quikorder.com"
	  "linkedin.com"
	  "facebookmail.com"
	  "plus.google.com"
	  "twitter.com"
	  "youtube.com"
	  "linguistlist.org"
	  "sportsauthority.com")
	'par)
       "\\)\\|\\(To:.*torysanderson@gmail.com\\)"))

Best regards, Michael.
