Hi Julian,

But "From: bounce-opa-intelligence*@ no" will whitelist
bounce-opa-intelligence* from any host and not just from atomic.sparklist.com,
which many not be exactly what he wants.

Can he not use:

From: bounce-opa-intelligence*@atomic.sparklist.com no ?

I am asking because I ran into this before ...

Thank you
Marco
