Hi Weitse,

That's not what I asked for; I only want some character to match the
union of what 'foo' and '.foo' currently match (when
parent_domain_matches_subdomains does not contain
"smtpd_access_maps").

So maybe '*' is not the best choice based on shell/etc usage
expectations.  But it could be any character or sequence you like.

Also, can you comment on why the '.' prefix couldn't also work when
parent_domain_matches_subdomains *does* contain "smtpd_access_maps"?

thanks,
Greg
