But does it ever do it in the case we are concerned with? Namely where the message is From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note that the original regexp works as long as the MUA added stuff doesn't contain '+'. >I have tested your regexp for a "regular" reply and it works.

This works instead: Yes, it requires quotes, but as I ask above. Does any MUA that adds this not put quotes around it when it contains '+'? >VERP_CONFIRM_REGEXP = r'^(\s*.*)?(?P<addr>[^+]+?)\+(?P<cookie>[EMAIL >PROTECTED]) >@.*$' > >This was checked against many formats and probably the simpler and >less reduntant: > >VERP_CONFIRM_REGEXP = r'^(.*)?(?P<addr>[^+]+?)\+(?P<cookie>[EMAIL >PROTECTED])@.*$' > >would work too.

Well, I don't think the 'addr' field is actually used, but I think these suggestions eat up all but the last character of it. How about VERP_CONFIRM_REGEXP = r'(.*<)?(?P<addr>[^+]+?)\+(?P<cookie>[EMAIL PROTECTED])@.*$' -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
