*biggrin* That's one reason, why I don't ask for some features. I
don't have the time to implement them.

Not that I care particularly about the feature...
(I get enough spam from dialup boxes with an envelope-sender that is
exactly equal to the hostname of the dialup box)

But: IF you start to consider it, please consider to add this inside
the acl-system. That way one can easily exclude things from this
"whitelist" (by just having an appropiate acl above it).

Just my 2 dirhem.
