Re: SMTP filter exclusions not working when return-path is empty

[elton <elton@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

No; but if its not working ensure that you are excluding the domains 
correctly -- might consider using *domain1*.  Also, try separating 
each RBL (and the SA_Filter) into its own filter w/separate eMail 
address -- this will make it easier to see which is not working as 
expected and track which is best.
