((?:\nReferences:[^\n]*?)(?:\n\s[^\n]*?)*(@ermspain.com>)) This one finds your FQDM (here @ermspain.com>) in the References: header lines only. Here is a short example: ,---- [ part of a mail header (with line numbers) ] | [...] | 1 X-another-X-Header: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> | 2 In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | 3 References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | 4 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | 5 <18921040171.20030121145911@[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | 6 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | 7 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | 8 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | 9 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> |10 X-another-X-Header: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> | [...] `---- The regexp matches the Message-ID in line 3. If the message id in line 3 was different it would match the one in line 7, but never the one in line 10. It ignores the one in line 1 (X-another-X-Header could stand for From:, CC:, Message-ID, etc.),2 or 10. The References: header is the only header that counts for this regular expression. ((?:\nReferences:[^\n]*?)(?:\n\s[^\n]*?)*(@ermspain.com>)) It looks for the string References: only at the beginning of lines. If the domain part of the message id isn't in this first line (line 3 from our example) it examines the following lines (4-9) as long as they start with a whitespace character (folding). BTW if ermspain.com isn't "unique" enough (also interesting for gmx, hotmail, myrealbox, etc. users) there is a way in the TB! to customize the domain part of your message-id: In the account properties choose a (invalid) From: address like [EMAIL PROTECTED] and your message ids will look like [EMAIL PROTECTED] Okay, you have to change back your from adress to the correct one (automatically in your templates via %FROM="Miguel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) This makes it easier to automagically detect even indirect answers to your postings.
