Sam, There is a set of POSIX compatible regular expression functions available in "C". The functions regcomp() and regexec() are both used by qmail to provide regexp testing for the control/badxxxxx files.

However, the code that requires a keyword to be surrounded by non-alphanumeric characters could be easily removed if you want to test the results. In filter.c, just remove the if() block from lines 697 to 706 (in version 4.0.5). Rerun "make" and install the new binary. My instinct says you won't like the new behavior but I could easily be wrong. In the long run, the best solution is probably to add support for regular expressions. They're much more flexible and powerful and the documentation would be much simpler as well, since many tutorials already exist for regexps. Several people have asked for regular expression support and it's on my list (though it's not high priority at the moment). -- Sam Clippinger Youri V.
