You munged your mail filter file, but that's ok.

You need to fix all your rules. The above pattern means, literally: if the  
message contains a header that starts with "To", or "Cc", or with  
"Bcc:.*md@mydomain\.com\.au", then…

Pretty much every email message has a header that starts with "To",  
including this one, so this would match pretty much everything. You probably  
wanted to use /^(To|Cc|Bcc):.*md@mydomain\.com\.au/
