Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, the reason for the regex is that I want to filter ONLY if Startword is the FIRST word and Endword is the LAST word. If they are in any other positions, or if one is missing, the message is not filtered. The positions are important. It is actually a bit more complex - Startword and Endword can be one of about 3 words each. I first wanted to see if the pre part could be eliminated, and Startword recognized as the "start".

Filter question (was: Regex question)
Hi ztrader, On Mon, 19 Mar 2001 20:28:14 -0800GMT (20/03/2001, 12:28 +0800GMT), ztrader wrote: z Startword stuff in the middle Endword In the filter, create two rules (on the rules tab): first one: Startword / Location: Subject / Presence: Yes second one: Endword / Location: Subejct / Presence: Yes If they both under the first tab, they have to be both true for this filter to catch. It would also work if someone wrote: "blaba endword [juhu] startword andson", but that should not happen too often, I hope. z This structure is sometimes prefixed with another word or two as: z [pre1.. pren] Startword stuff in the middle Endword No prob, as long as both keywords are in the subject somewhere, it'll work. -- Cheers, Thomas.
