I'm using restrict senders 1.4 with squirrelmail 1.4.9a (upgrade to 
current in progress) and it has been working fine.  One caveat ... it 
may not work as well as might be expected due to the way the plugin 
tracks numbers (we've observed some interesting behavior).  I can 
elaborate more off-list if anybody has questions.
