        Mhhhh. I generally try before answering a question in a list, so
maybe problem is more subtil than i/you/we thought:

mail_version = Snapshot-20000531
11 [7:14] titiyoko:~> postconf header_checks
header_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/headreject
12 [7:14] titiyoko:~> cat /etc/postfix/headreject
/^From: meabruti\.com/ OK
/^From: .*abruti\.com/ REJECT

Postfix documentations about header_checks:

    At present, specifying a header pattern with OK serves no useful
purpose. A rule ending in OK affects only the header being matched. The
next header may still result in a REJECT match, causing the mail still
to be rejected.
