Indeed indeed. I sent myself an email and (once it arrived) went to
/mail/cur/ to modify its from header, which now is:
From: "phoney bologna [email protected] [bademails]"
<[email protected]>
<limit>~f [email protected] works, as does
score "~f [email protected]" -40
I stress that scoring *additive*, so if you have a +100 rule that matches
(among others) [email protected], that will offset your malus
provision.
The correct way to debug this is probably:
1. try at first a simple limit (type l and then your mail
address) to check whether matching works
2. if 1. succeeds, provide a minimal working scores.rc file
