Well one thing I saw in the message (I haven't had a chance to look through
the rules files yet) is you are using []'s. these are now an operator that
mean any included character. I would go get the chart from any of the sites
that support RegEx and go by that as it will be very close to the new syntax

Subject: [IMail Forum] rules problem after 8.05 to 8.21 upgrade
Hi,
Ok, so there was a change somewhere along the road where the rules syntax
was changed. I have read several mails here, read the latest documentation
at the Ipswitch site about inbound rules syntax but I cannot find why my
rules are doing weird things. I must be missing something.
I thought I read somewhere that !AND! and !OR! were a problem now, but in
the documentation at the Ipswitch site they are still listed as such. The
User guide for Imail 8.2 at
http://www.ipswitch.com/Support/ICS/guides/IMailServer/8_2/IMailUGHTML/Chapt
er%204%20processing3.html states:
--------<quote>----------
Multiple condition rule:
message_area condition search_text quantifier !AND!/ !OR! message_area
condition search_text quantifier: mailbox_name
--------<quote>----------
So that syntax is still the same.
Where can I find what the changes were. My rules.ima file worked perfectly
up until I upgraded from 8.05 to 8.21 this morning. (Which I needed to do
because of the buffer bug in the IMAP protocol).
Attached my rules as i had them rules-org.ima and what I have in place
now.
Currently a lot of mails end up in my Declude antivirus folder. The rule
for
that folder is
S~[Declude.Virus]:Other lists\Declude antivirus
Now why would any mail which does *not* contain that specific tekst in the
subject end up in that folder?
Here the headers of a mail which I just send to myself (to get the *.ima
files overhere).

As you can see IMail applied the Declude virus list rule based on the data
RULES.IMA;RULES-ORG.IMA But the subject in the header does*not* include
the
specified text. Arggg. :-(
Heeeelp.......
