Subject: Whitelist entry for yahoo address letting through yahoo spam..


   I've got a whitelist rule that's structured like this:

:0 H
* hilary|\
larylark(_at_)yahoo(_dot_)com
{
  LOG="Whitelist - "
  :0
  $DEFAULT
}

   Aside from most likely including redundant or unneeded file locks, it 
is also letting through *anything* from the yahoo domain (and probably 
msn too).  Is there a reason it would do this, instead of allowing 
through only messages that matched the entire yahoo address above?

If the message is in the white list it is delivered to $DEFAULT.
If it is *not* in the white list it is delivered to $DEFAULT?

If $DEFAULT isn't a directory, you'll need a lock:

  :0:
  $DEFAULT
