Package: grepmail Version: 5.3032-2 Severity: normal unstable/testing version 5.3033-1 (mis)behaves in the same manner.
While trying to locate spam using a -E complex search expression, I found out that if the search expression contains an escaped /-char, grepmail does not produce the expected results. Replacing '\/' with '\S' or '.' works nicely. Thus: # grepmail -E '$email_header =~ /^User-Agent:\s+Thunderbird\s+1\.5\.0\.12\s+\(Windows\/20070509\)/' mbox will produce nothing, while: # grepmail -E '$email_header =~ /^User-Agent:\s+Thunderbird\s+1\.5\.0\.12\s+\(Windows.20070509\)/' mbox does just what I want it to do.
