Although this thread now might be offtopic, let me send a follow-up. By searching with C related terms, I found some articles about this issue. It seems to be a common problem on regex + multibyte in C. (e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/a/15895746 <https://stackoverflow.com/a/15895746>)

That's why it matches with U+Fxxx (starts with \xef in UTF-8). And without ^, it matches partial byte of a character, U+4444 (\xe4\x91\x84), U+5C11 (\xeb\xb0\x91) for example. I'm not familiar with C and don't know whether pcre or \k solve this issue, but it might hard to fix if the root cause is how C handles multibyte strings. _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list notmuch@notmuchmail.org https://notmuchmail.org/mailman/listinfo/notmuch
