I am looking into DB lookup for filter rules and from this mailing list
I discovered it was possible in version 1.61 using tortuous string
expansions. However I if I understand John's message correctly a
simplified method is available on the testing versions. I have
downloaded version 1.653 and cannot see any mention on the use of @@ in
filter rules. Am I looking in the wrong place ?
