Surprise, it doesn't do neither of this. I just checked the code and what it does 
is a 1:1 c-style comparison (domaincmp() in acl.c). So, it only matches *exactly*, 
nothing else. If I want to include subdomains I better put them in ;-) Anyway, for 
now I have been using IP addresses only.
Regex matching is done by regexec() which must be provided by some external 
library. I'm not familiar with Linux libaries, so I don't know how it exactly 
works, but I assume your explanation above applies, so *if* a regex is used a $ at 
the end might be handy.
