So what is the amount of time that Sympa caches the results of Custom
Conditions?

The 2 custom scenarios take care of the SMTP check, because every user here
has 3 to 7 different email aliases I had to write my own custom conditions
to make sure that we took into account all of those other email aliases.

CustomCondition::checkallbcemails([sender],[listname],"subscriber") smtp  
-> do_it
CustomCondition::checkallbcemails([sender],[listname],"editor")     smtp  
-> do_it

The problem is that Sympa is caching the results of the custom conditions
and reusing those results instead of re-evaluating the custom scenario.

Hi Chris,

I guess that your scenario failed to accept the subscriber's message
because it is missing the 'smtp' authentication method, along with 'md5'
and 'smime'.
It is required because when a message is sent via the mail interface the
trust only relies on the From: SMTP field.
Your scenario's first line should look like this :

    is_subscriber([listname],[sender])          *smtp,*md5,smime   -> do_it
