Here is yet another data point.

My outgoing filter has this reference to my whitelist:

to-file ~/.tmda/lists/whitelist tag envelope dated from bare


The whitelist has
        3 patterns like this:
                [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        10 patterns like this:
                [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        19 patterns like this
                [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        762 plain addresses


In this configuration, time to send outgoing mail is:

real    0m2.71s
user    0m1.03s
sys     0m0.29s


However, I see that [EMAIL PROTECTED] is really a domain match, so I removed the "*@"
from those 19 patterns to leave bare domains.  With that changes, the time
increases dramatically:

real    0m9.46s
user    0m4.68s
sys     0m0.32s


This is the opposite of what I expected, as I thought that domain matches were
faster than patterns.
