That is why quite a few users use proxomitron together with Outpost for
the time. There is quite some anticipation for the features that will be
implemented. You can get a grasp of what is to be expected at:

With regard to importing lists in Outpost, the following link can be
useful:

I do not know the actual file format used by proxomitron. Outpost can
import plain text files with a .ctl extension which should contain a list
of ad-blocking keywords, one keyword per line. Last time I checked,
implementing wild cards in Outpost ad blocking lists is a to-do.

A somewhat related to-do feature is importing, exporting and/or merging
ad blocking lists.
