OK, I now understand what you are suggesting. Thanks for the explanation. I will think about this when I next work on PCRE, but that will not be for several months. I think that perhaps describing this as "insufficient data" rather than "multisegment" would be clearer to users, though of course the documentation could explain how to use it for multiple segments. How easy it would be to actually implement it is another matter. Philip -- Philip Hazel -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/pcre-dev
