    [ The following text is in the "ISO-8859-1" character set. ]
    [ Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set.  ]
    [ Some characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]

You will probably find the real envelope sender address is different
from the From: header contents. Take a look in your maillog to find the
real addresses, or switch on the "X-Envelope-From" header (or whatever I
called it) in MailScanner.conf and take a look at the headers of a
message coming in.

My best guess would be that you need
    *@*.domain.com
as well as *@domain.com
but that is a guess.
