Why do you do this (the rewriting as if it is not blacklisted)? I
understand the concept behind the last 3, but not the first. I would
think you would not want to receive any mail from a blacklisted
domain - after all, that's the purpose of blacklisting to begin
with... ?

I admit that I am still confused about the % wildcard and exactly how
it works, even though I use it in my router (I can follow a formula
:-). It's not documented on Stalker's Router Settings page.

% seems to be an �ber-@ that has to be distinguished from the other @
that is already used in this line.
