Are you *sure*?  I just stared at the FROM_* expansions really hard, and
they should not have matched, "mail" is matched iff the character
immeadiately before it is *not* one of

      ((_dot_)%(_at_)a-z0-9

Since it's an '@', it shouldn't have matched.  Can you post the recipe
involved, together with the log output with VERBOSE=on?

Hmm, you are right.  I appear to have misdiagnosed the problem.

I will have to check deeper into this.  There must be something else
about the user's headers which are causing it to be misfiled.

Thanks,
