From section 10.12 ("Address Lists"):
. If a pattern contains an @ character, but is not a regular expression or
a lookup as described above, the local part of the subject address is
compared with the local part of the pattern, which may start with an
asterisk. If the local parts match, the domain is checked in exactly the
same way as for a pattern in a domain list. For example, the domain can
be wildcarded, refer to a named list, be be or a lookup:
deny senders = *@*.spamming.site:\
*@+hostile_domains:\
bozo@partial-lsearch;/list/of/dodgy/sites
