Are you sure you need the wildcard? I would imagine that these are
already nicely formatted and always uniform, like 

  X-Apparently-To: mailinglist(_at_)chiltons(_dot_)u-net(_dot_)com

and you can then use a sure-fire regexp like

  ^X-Apparently-To: mailinglist(_at_)chiltons\(_dot_)u-net\(_dot_)com$

Perhaps you can post the pertinent headers and a log snippet so we can
look for ourselves? All we can really tell from your description is
that something you expected to happen really didn't.

When I looked at this file in vi, the X-Apparently to line said -->
X-ApparentlyTo: mailinglist(_at_)chiltons(_dot_)u-net(_dot_)com
              ^^
If the dash really was missing, no wonder. 

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

You are writing very long lines. See if your mail editor has an option
to wrap text at 72 columns or so. ;^/
