It triggers a problem when using regexp's in the configuration
file. E.g.

| rcpt /spamtrap-prefix.*@.../
| rcpt /maillists+foobarnet.blablub.com=mydomain.com@.*/
                               ^

would *never* be matched as no tested rcpt will have the characters
after the marked place (^). That's a very confusing behavior and it is
documented nowhere (afaik).
