Great, I found the file locally and it does look very similar to the
web's README,

http://www.postfix.org/FILTER_README.html

Similar to the above URL's ''Filtering mail from outside users only''
section, what does 1.2.3.4/5 really mean ? Sorry if I'm being dense,
but again I'm just trying to filter all _incoming_ mails irrespective
of IP address and exclude everything else. Assume my IP address is
216.18.0.69 and I can use the 127.0.0.1 to point to myself how do I
go about setting up the master.cf entries ?

Again sorry if I'm just not seeing the obvious - but the example seemed
to be filtering on specific external IP addresses where-as I want do it
on ALL external IP addresses and simply exclude out-bound internal mails
being sourced from 127.0.0.1

I'll look into how to setup the content filters (and the specification
format - ie. foo:baz) later.

Regards,

.tf.
