Hmm.. You say that you disagree that the OP has provided information that has been requested, yet you're unwilling or unable to substantiate this. As to the format for the protect list

Aside from that, I see nothing wrong with your code.


can you tell me please how to check this?
the addresses in my protect list are like: some*!*@*

At this point, the OP has given a specific format that the protect list is in. It's not until much later that it's revealed that this is, in fact, only one of the formats that the protect list uses.

And now, the only solution you gave him is that he should change his "stored method" simply to make the code easier.
-- Did you completely miss the code I appended to that message? Also, that was a suggestion, since, if the OP wanted other scripts that also referenced the protect list, they are easier to write if one format is used in the protect list, rather than multiple formats.
