OK, I've looked at the FAQ and the conf.cf file for instructions on how to
use whitelist_from_rcvd.

It appears that the syntax of the rule should be:

Whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] mydomain.com  

This would catch messages with received headers that are set to
[EMAIL PROTECTED], if the messages were sent to users at my domain by
other than my own mail server.

Do I understand this correctly?
