While it is possible to do wildcard rewriting with a simple regexp, it is *strongly* discouraged because it turns your server into a backscatter source. Your queue will fill with undeliverable bounces and eventually get you blacklisted. You can find examples both of wildcard regexp's that work and folks who were blacklisted for using them in the archives. You're far better off getting a recipient list and implementing it right the first time. It's always better to walk around the pile rather than step in it and hope it cleans off. -- Noel Jones
