I have tried to set up router entries to spam trap mail that is being 
sent to me and to a domain I never expect to exchange mail with.

The mail comes addressed like this:

>To: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
>Subject: Raging Hard Erection Formula.
>Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>... lots more at eskimo.com
>Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>... lots more

The router rules I tried were:

*@mail.eskimo.com = spamtrap

<*@mail.eskimo.com> = spamtrap

<*@mail.eskimo.com> = spamola
<spamola> = spamtrap

but none of them seem to work. I tested by sending mail to myself 
(from another server) and CCing a "mail.eskimo.com" address.

I suspect that the problem is that "mail.eskimo.com" is not local to 
me, so the spamtrap can't work. It seems to only work on local 
addresses. The "spamola" rules were an attempt to make it local.

Any suggestions on how to get this to work gratefully received. I 
thought I understood the router until now ...
