Haha, we had a similar discussion three years a ago ;)

This is my mimedefang-filter now:

sub filter_initialize {
   require DB_File;
   use Fcntl;
   tie %testhash_list, "DB_File", "/etc/mail/testhash.db", O_RDONLY;
}

sub filter_cleanup {
        untie %testhash_list;
}

sub filter_end {
    [...]

    # get header From and compare to hash 
    my $fromaddr = $entity->head->get('From');
    $fromaddr =~ s/.+<([^>]+)>/$1/;
    $fromaddr =~ s/\s+$//;
    
    if(exists $testhash_list{lc $fromaddr}) {
       action_add_header("X-SpecialHeader", "$fromaddr is in
testhast_list");
    }

The hash file is created with 

 makemap hash testhash.db < testhash.txt 

The format of the hash file is just

 [email protected]<TAB>1

What I don't understand is, why there is an ending white space on the
header From variable $fromaddr, so I have to trim it with  

  $fromaddr =~ s/\s+$//;

Ciao
Marcus
