The \b after "wrote" is irrelevant in the first example and wrong in the
second.
\b requires that there is a letter or underscore on one side and something
else on the other side.
In the first example (/\bwrote\b:/i), both sides of the \b are specified and
so it is not needed.
I the second example (/\bwrote:\b/i), you are specifying that the colon must
be followed by a word character (letter or underscore). This does not allow
a space following the colon.
The correct regex would be:
Subject =~ /\bwrote:/i
You want a word break at the beginning, but you really don't care what comes
after the colon.
