I've been playing with it for a while and the problem seems to be more clear. If From: contains only email addres containing . in name, for example From: name.surname@somedomain.com smartlist behaves the strange way I described. But when it is something like From: Name Surname name.surname@somedomain.com all is fine. Apparently some minor bug somewhere in some regular expression ;-) Unfortunately I don't have time to find it and fix it myself. Any help would be appreciated.
Most likely it's not in a regular expression, but rather in the address recognition/extraction heuristics you'll find in the "multigram" program which is compiled as part of the procmail suite along with formail and procmail itself.
