I get many emails addressed to internal sendmail <id>'s.

(seem to fit a basic pattern but don't know how to specify the
pattern (or I don't have it right):
<(start of an email-address)>[0-9][0-9a-fa-f\....@mydomain
by start of an email, addr, I mean inside or outside literal '<>'.
I try matching to '<' as a start char to look for anything starting
with a number, but that fails if they don't use the "name <x...@yy>"
format, but just use "x...@yy". Don't know how to root at beginning
of any email address looking thing.
Generally:
^ means 'start of line'
$ means 'end of line'
but whitelist_from used globbing, and I don't think you can use those
anchors there. are the emaisl comming in without a tld (1...@example
and not 1...@example.com)?
any hints would be appreciated...
running slightly older SA 3.1.7 on perl 5.8.8....
Slightly? No, that's ancient (2.5 years!!). Seriously, if there is
only one thing you keep updated on your mailserver, it needs to be
SpamAssassin.
