it also do much more! I'm in Pandora mail-list and there, always add
in the name (FROM:) something like ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), so FROM: looks:
"Brano ([EMAIL PROTECTED])" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

when I put reply, it normally writes:
Brano ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrotes...blablabla

So I changed the macro a bit, and everything is doing here:
%SETPATTREGEXP='\"?\s*([^[(<>;{}\|]*)\b'%-
%REGEXPBLINDMATCH="%OFROMNAME"%-
%SUBPATT="1"%-

Now it put in reply normal name:
Brano wrotes...blablabla

So I'm happy now.

I know. I did some QTs so I know :) Regexps are sometimes so hard :)
