Hi,
  I want to write a personal domain-wise rule 
The rule I am using now is 


header __TO_DOMAIN_NETToCc =~ /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/i

But the above rule would match @domain.net as well as
@domain.net.in 


You have not tried it, have you? The \b assures that it will not match
on @domain.net.in.

I have tested this with SA3.1
ToCc =~ /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/i   matched  @domain.net as well as
@domain.net.in

Um, J.. \b will match any word boundary.. a . is not a word character
so /\.net\b/ matches .net.in.

Well, no, it will.   The dot is a wordbreak, and \b is only looking for a
break.  So it would match.

There are several ways to go.  A fairly trivial one that doesn't use a
lookahead might be

header __TO_DOMAIN_NETToCc =~ /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/i

Hi,

I was experimenting with something similar, although as a client of a big ISP I 
need full match
rather than domain match.
My experience so far: some mail that does not have me in To or Cc is definitely 
spam,
or worse. The other part is legit mail, mostly from mailinglists or other mail 
forwarders,
and needs explicit whitelisting (or a meta rule)
Expect to check the return path (such as [EMAIL PROTECTED])

Rather than \b for the end, try [\s\], This will force a whitespace or
a  to be present there, not just any arbitrary word-boundary.

ToCc =~ /[EMAIL PROTECTED]]/i

 ToCc =~ /[EMAIL PROTECTED]]/i
 

Does \s match the end of line (\n) in this context?

Also, you can add ',' to cope with
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In any case, this should not be used to whitelist (or lower the score)
as it would also match
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
