Greetings!
Howdy.
I am attempting to parse emails on the fly after a spam filter adds a score to the headers. (SpamAssassin, if you're curious.)
When I try to find out what the spam score is I am getting a weird error. Here's the lines that error out:
if ( $msg[$line] =~ '^X-Spam-Level: ***********' ) {
if ($msg[$line] =~ /^X-Spam-Level: [*]+/) {
or
$bad_spam += length $1 if $msg[$line] =~ /^X-Spam-Level: ([*]+)/;
If you want to increase the count by the number of *s.
$bad_spam += 1; }
The score is the number of splats. The more splats, the higher the spam score.
The error I am getting is:
Nested quantifiers before HERE mark in regex m/^X-Spam-Level: ** << HERE *********/ at /home/filter/grab.pl line 16.
Why am I getting a HERE marker? Do I need to escape all the "*"s? Do I need to do something else?
* is a regex metacharacter. Escaping all the *s would do the trick, yes, as does putting it in a character class.
I am looking for the string "X-Spam-Level: " followed by 11 or more splats. If I find it, I need to modify another line in the @msg array (the subject line) and forward the message on.
Oops, I should have read down to here first, eh? <laughs>
if ($msg[$line] =~ /^X-Spam-Level: \*{11,}/) {
# has 11 or more *s...
}Hope that helps.
James
