 This string is matched against the reverse DNS lookup used during the handover

 Only one whitelist entry is allowed per line, as in C<whitelist_from_rcvd>.
 Multiple C<whitelist_from_dkim> lines are allowed. File-glob style characters

-Use this to supplement the whitelist_from addresses with a check against the

-exactly the same as the syntax for 'whitelist_from'.
+Works similarly to whitelist_from, except that in addition to matching

 Just like whitelist_from, multiple addresses per line, separated by spaces,
 are OK. Multiple C<whitelist_from_spf> lines are also OK.
