Specifying any capital letter in your regexp will cause Mutt to match
the regexp case-sensitively.  If there are no capital letters in the
regexp, it will be performed case-insensitively.

So a regexp like "^(re|aw): [A-Z]*" will fail to match "Re: ",
because the "A-Z" part causes a case-sensitive match.  If the
regexp was "^(re|aw): [a-z]*", it would match.
