I'm looking for a regular expression to remove a variable length string from

incoming could be something like:

hasdf dsjfhadfa ...KNOWN STRING.....
167jhjkd KNOWN STRING ...

and procmail should strip it to everything after and including KNOWN STRING.

Tried using $match?

:0fh
* ^Subject:.*\/KNOWN STRING.*
| formail -I"Subject: $MATCH"
