I get many emails addressed to internal sendmail <id>'s. 123...@mydomain 1abd56.ef7...@mydomain
(seem to fit a basic pattern but don't know how to specify the pattern (or I don't have it right): <(start of an email-address)>[0-9][0-9a-fa-f\....@mydomain by start of an email, addr, I mean inside or outside literal '<>'. I try matching to '<' as a start char to look for anything starting with a number, but that fails if they don't use the "name <x...@yy>" format, but just use "x...@yy". Don't know how to root at beginning of any email address looking thing. I know the pattern matcher in the userprefs file is primitive though -- like DOS level file matching, so I don't know how to write it in userprefs... any hints would be appreciated... running slightly older SA 3.1.7 on perl 5.8.8.... intending to update ... eventually but don't know that this would solve any pattern help.... Thanks, -linda
