-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello Marck D. Pearlstone !

I did post a test pattern and not the proper answer to the question. I corrected my reply this morning but obviously it didn't arrive yet (at least it didn't here). > Is a bit more like it since the object of the exercise is to retrieve > a variable email address. > Although, more reliable is this one: > %TO=""%To="%SETPATTREGEXP='^Email:\s(.*)\n'%REGEXPBLINDMATCH='%text'%SUBPATT='1'" Question: is the (.*) not too greedy, so that it could match the very last \n in the text and not that one just behind the email-adress? (I just started to read about greedy and non-greedy patterns<g> Please CMIIW). May I suggest an improvement to make sure that an email adress will be matched: (?i)^Email:\s?(\S+@\S+\.\S+)\ This would ignore case; there maybe one or no whitespace behind "Email:"; the text behind the whitespace has to look like an email address (more or less:-)). Is that a possible way?? - -- Best regards, Gerd ====================================== Using The Bat!
