You can simplify your rule code a little if you want:

perhaps:

header LOCAL_BE From:addr =~ /\.beauty$/i

would be even smarter, unless you wanty to catch ".beauty" in From: name

The meta isn't really doing anything there, since it only has a single 
clause.
Metas are good when you want to combine the results of several matches 
with boolean logic.


You might also want to add a \b to the rule:

header LOCAL_BE  From =~ /.\.beauty\b/i

Without that the rule will match ".beauty", but also ".beautyrest".

Another thing you might want to consider is using "From:addr" rather 
than just "From". As it is, it will match ".beauty" both in the address 
and in the person's name description. So it would match:


    From: "janice.beautyfull" 

Maybe you want that, in wihich a bare "From" is fine.



Ah. Thanks.
