Hi, I posted this question a while back but got no response. I figured I try
again.

Subject: RE: SA-Learn and Windows long file names
Ok, I stepped trough the sa-learn code with a debugger and discovered that my
e-mail files are getting "grepped" out.� Unfortunately, I'm not very good at
regular expressions yet.� Can someone explain please.� The problem is in the
scan_directory method of �ArchiveIterator.pm.� The grep is apparently trying to
filter out some files, but it's actually filtering out all my mail.
�
It seems to having something to do with a NON "." or "," �preceding a
non-whitespace.� What the heck is that (sorry, I'm a windows person).
�
# ignore ,234 (deleted or refiled messages) and MH metadata dotfiles
�� @files = grep { /^[^,.]\S*$/ } readdir(DIR);
�
�
These are my file names.� (Please don't make fun of these crazy characters in
the file name.� I have no control.� This is apparently how Active
Directory/Exchange Server name the files).� What's odd is that they encode the
asterisk but not the $ or ! or period.
�
%2A%2A%2A%2ASPAM%2A%2A%2A%2A! $1,500 a Day -� Starting Today !%22 DARE ME%22
scraqwcxnafpsffqm.EML
%2A%2A%2A%2ASPAM%2A%2A%2A%2A! $1.10 A DOSE VIAGRA.EML
�
Anyway,� any insight on why this grep is there would be appreciated.
�
Thanks,
Mark DeMichele

�
I've been trying to get sa-learn to learn spam messages stored in an active
directory on an Exchange Server.� I discovered that it's having problems with
long file names.� Exchange names the files using the subject which is long.� If
I copy the messages and rename them to something shorter, it works ok.� Do you
think there's any way this can be fixed.
Thanks,
