Is the following valid?

mail.box

or do I have to escape the dot in mail\.box?

No, I don't believe that you do... there's no pattern matching that goes on in 
the mailbox name, so 
wildcard substitution isn't an issue.

You *should* escape the . before the ".dom" in the line, and make sure that the 
^ is next to the TO and 
make sure there is a "*" at the beginning of that line, so it should look like 
this:

:0:
* ^TOuser(_at_)domain\(_dot_)dom
mail.box
