Can you share the relevant lines from your .pinerc? FWIW, I have rules that 
match on FROM that include a space and
they work. For example:
   LIT:pattern="/NICK=tt/FROM=TT SYSTEM <redac...@redacted.com>/...etc...

That's odd... I have this pattern:

LIT:pattern="/NICK=pop.liwest.at/FROM=pop.liwest.at/FLDTYPE=SPEC/FOLDER=INBOX" 
action="/FILTER=1/FOLDER=\/home\/ferdl\/mail\/000_JUNK/NOKILL=1"

and it fails to detect this from line:

 From: Sleep Apnea n...@pop.liwest.at

      Hi,

      wanted to filter out annoying spam mails using a filter rule on the 
domain of
      the spam sender. The spam mails From fields all have the format of

      From: Annoying sen...@foo.host.com

      where the "@foo.host.com" part is always the same.

      It turns out that a rule filtering for foo.host.com does not work. I 
assume the
      problem is the single blank/whitespace between "Annoying" and "Sender".

      Is there any possibility to filter such mails? Or should I rather ask the 
spam
      senders to politely use a valid RfC compliant format for their From 
addresses? :-)

      Regards
