. If a pattern starts with '@@' followed by a single-key lookup item
(for |
example, "@@lsearch;/some/file"), the address that is being checked is
split into a local part and a domain. The domain is looked up in the
file. If it is not found, there is no match. If it is found, the data
that is looked up from the file is treated as a colon-separated
list of
local part patterns, each of which is matched against the subject
local
part in turn.
