Hmmm.  Unfortunately restrict_post only uses lists of addresses verbatim.
It would be tough, but possibly doable, using taboo_headers (in 1.94, when
released) and advanced perl5 regexp stuff (like zero width negative
lookahead assertions, "(?!regexp)").  Ugh.

It might be nice to have something like, say, allowed_addresses which would
be an array of regexps, like taboo_headers, at least one of which must
match.  If none of these matches, restrict_post is consulted.  Hmmm.

Any other ideas?
