MS ANTIGEN : the "Allowed Mailhost" and "Allowed sender" list doesn't work

MS ANTIGEN :  the "Allowed Mailhost" and "Allowed sender" list doesn't work. I already set to skip checking the "Allowed Mailhost" in the "SETTINGS" ---> "General Options" but it doesn't work.

When you say that it doesn't work, is it rejecting all e-mail even those from the allowed list, or is it allowing all e-mail, even those not on the list? In what format have you added the mailhosts and senders?

Yes it is rejecting all e-mails from the allowed list.
E-mails in the "Allowed Mailhost" and "Allowed Senders" supposed not to be filtered.
FORMAT:
In the "Allowed Mailhost" I added like : *@aol.com
In the "Allowed Senders" I added like : rsmith@yahoo.com

I enable all the senders list in the SMTP scan job, but the MTA scan job doesn't show me the option to enable the senders lists, check the attachment please:

The way you show me putting for example *ibm.com DNS in the "Allowed Senders" to aloud all emails coming from @ibm.com mailhost to come trough, works very good!
Thanks AdamsConsulting.

But my question now is: what is the function of "Allowed Mailhosts"?
