Matching literal dot in To

2015-06-11 23:04:36
I use the following to match a literal dot in the To field, the dot (period) has to occur prior to the @ character. The recipe is:

"^To:.*\..*@.*"

For some reason, the recipe matches some (but not all, I have not found a pattern yet) addressees in the To field where there is no dot in the To address prior to the @ sign. Logging shows the match occurring, but of course it does not give a reason why.

Any ideas on how to trouble shoot further?

Regards and thanks in advance for any help.
