Hey Gary, are you saying that all of my rule sets I should add :0: before
the 'From@ field? I was always told to add them on top. All of my
others are
on top and they do work.
Yes, per the manual page:
Recipes
A line starting with ':' marks the beginning of a recipe.
It has the following format:
:0 [flags] [ : [locallockfile] ]
<zero or more conditions (one per line)>
<exactly one action line>
Conditions start with a leading `*', everything after that
character is passed on to the internal egrep literally,
except for leading and trailing whitespace. These regular
expressions are completely compatible to the normal
egrep(1) extended regular expressions. See also Extended
regular expressions.
Your "From:" pattern is called a <condition> in the terminology above.
Try some of the following:
