An alternative approach is creating new strings from parsed data: string TO_BODY = TO:addr ":" BODY(500) string TO_BODY ~= /<whatever>/ the advantage of this is that there are no dependencies. I'm thinking that BODY(500) would be a multi-line string constructed from the first 500 byte of the rendered body. For me having multi-line body matching is more important than any of this.
