Forgot to add that my intention was not to have that space in between @ and the domain. It was just a typo but lint didn't report a problem before which is why I was never aware that it was typed like that. That could possibly be something that shouldn't be allowed to happen and should spit out an error.

By suggestion of Kevin, I ran the debug again without my whitelist configs and there was no match to my whitelist. I then broke up my whitelist configs until it found a match. I was then able to see that I had a config as "*@ domain.com" so even though the line did not end with the @ symbol, part of the line did which is how it found was able to match it.

The From header shows: From: <Suzanne.Noble@> Re-running the message through debug shows: dbg: eval: all '*From' addrs: Suzanne.Noble@ dbg: rules: address suzanne.noble@ matches whitelist or blacklist regexp: ^.*\@$ dbg: rules: ran eval rule USER_IN_WHITELIST ======> got hit (1) So it appears that because the from header had nothing after the @ sign, it was whitelisted. But I searched all of my configs and I don't have anything that looks like "noble@" or "*@" so how did this message get through? Any ideas? I am on version 3.3.1 in case this might be a bug that was already fixed in the newer versions. Thanks, Eric
