hi all -

i've noticed that a significant amount of spam i receive contain, in the 
subject line, after a spam-style subject message ("FREE MONEY"!), a whole

string of black white spaces, often followed by a few letters or
sometimes 
letters.

so i wrote a little procmail command that i hoped would put into the
folder 
all mail that, in the subject line, contained over six-ish white spaces
(no 
personal e-mail i receive ever contains so many), followed by a
number(s). 
so i wrote the following:

:0:
* ^Subject.*([        ]+[0-9]+)

                ^^^^^^^^------------do the brackets contain a space
followed by a tab?
