I can't figure this one out so I'll throw it out.

When receiving mail from the address b...@e.bbcmail.co.uk

def_whitelist_auth  *@*.bbcmail.co.uk # is not whitelisted
whitelist_from_dkim *@*.bbcmail.co.uk # is whitelisted

Now I thought this a bit odd since the docs say:

Using whitelist_auth is roughly equivalent to specifying duplicate whitelist_from_spf, whitelist_from_dk, and whitelist_from_dkim lines for each of the addresses specified.

But it is only "roughly equivalent" so perhaps it doesn't like the wildcard subdomain syntax.

And then I saw i...@fun.stubhub.co.uk be whitelisted by:

def_whitelist_auth  *@*.stubhub.co.uk

So presumably whitelist_auth will accept a wildcard subdomain, but not for the bbcemail.co.uk domain...

I've been running all kinds of variations through and I can't really see why one is whitelisted and the other isn't. There's no obvious difference (to me) between these addresses, DKIM signatures, or whitelisting rules, yet still they behave differently.

Can anyone spot my mistake?
