Is there actually supposed to be a "From:" or "To:" tag in that
file?  The top of my file reads:

# This is a list of email addresses (with an @ sign in them) or entire email
# domains (without an @ sign in them) from which you will accept mail without
# ever marking it as spam.
#jkf at ecs.soton.ac.uk
#JulianField.net
#*.ecs.soton.ac.uk

Which makes me suspect you should be using a syntax like:
        lyris.gamespy.com
        example.com
        example.tld
(ie: no "From:" tag)
