Hi everyone,

Perhaps I've missed a message about filtering using RegExps, but since
I got the hang of using this great feature, I managed to create a real
puzzle for myself. :(

As soon as I discovered the power of RegExps I decided that I could
use them for at least one annoying host, that keeps sending me weekly
mails from different addresses.

I'm having a homepage at Xoom.com and they like to send mails with all
kind of information. I'm not really interested in what they have to
say, but, sometimes I like to read a topic or two, so I want to set
the mail aside in a folder of later reading.

The address Xoom uses to send the email is different everytime.
They use the message-ID in the From: so every message is unique
(Argh).

I figured out that using a RegExp I could filter the messages anyway,
so I created this beauty (Well, it's my first, so she beautiful ;)):

Strings:
 
%SETPATTREGEXP="(?m-s)(From:\s+)("".*""\s+<\w+)(-\w+-)(\w.*)"%REGEXPBLINDMATCH="%HEADERS"From:
 "XOOM.com/NBCi" <unsubs%SUBPATT="3"thewizzonnet.nl>
Location:
  Kludges
Precense:
  Yes

The RegExp matches exactly the From: in the Kludges. (I tried it using
a QuickTemplate)

The only thing that this thing does is to extract the MessageID, so I
can recreate the From:. I thought I finally had it all right, but TB!
ignores the filter, as if it doesn't matches.

Am I doing something wrong, or did I understand the usage of Regexp in
the filters?

            Now, am I really the only one here who finds that just a
            little bit tacky?
