Asterisk problem in Sieve Script

Hello,

with the, there is not any match ...

'.*' would be a regular expression matching anything,
but sieve filter language doesn't support regular expressions, or does it?

I did a workaround on the other side, I did a reverse DNS lookup, and 
most times
there is a DNS name instead of an IP address, and with this I didn't 
find any sample that
doesn't work ...

Greetings,
Walter
