Hi jeffrey covey! I'm a UNIX administrator and I like to fight spam!
i'm on a couple of mailing lists which ask that people start subject
lines with constructs like [MAC] or [ADMIN] to make it easy to sort
out what you're not interested in. but how do i match on these with
procmail? the grep manpage led me to believe that if the brackets
were escaped with backslashes, they'd be treated as regular
characters, so i thought \[MAC\] would match [MAC], but that doesn't
see to be the case.
For whatever reason, you need to enclose the brackets in brackets
of their own. Try:
[[]MAC[]]
[[]ADMIN[]]
Regards,
