I run a number of access controlled file servers.  Right now, the only
way I can get clients onto the access list is to enumerate all of them,
e.g.:

        a@foo.bar
        b@foo.bar
        ...

It would be way cool if it was possible to have an entry in a mailing
list that was an "authorization" entry and took wild cards, e.g.:

        *@foo.bar               Any client sending from foo.bar

there would probably be other useful combinations, but this is the one I
would have most user for.

Such entries would not enter into the normal mail distribution
associated with mailing lists.
