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
