Wouldn't that be:
HOST=%.* MAIL $ADMINS COLOR=red
The reason I ask is because I am using HOST=%.*, and it seems to be working. I thought it had to be a regex?
"HOST=*" is a special-case meaning "match anything". It was so simple to implement, and obviously useful (I think), so I added that some time ago.
Your regex will also work, and is the recommended way of doing wildcard matches.
