I stated my impression:

Philip duly responded,

Please help me make sure I understand.

1. If a recipe has the `D' flag,

 * ^FROM_DAEMON|pussycat

will match if "PUsSYcAT" appears in the head.

2. #1 is not true if the condition has ^FROM_MAILER rather than ^FROM_DAEMON.

3. If a recipe has the `D' flag,

  * ^TO_address

will match "Cc: address" but not "CC: address".

Thank you.
