Hi, all. I'm finding that the recipe:
:0
* ^( )fred
| (: matched; cat)> /dev/null
is not matching when I have a line in the header like this:
fred
(i.e. a space at the beginning of the line followed by "fred").
More complex variations of this regex also fail. Is this considered a
bug, or is it a case of "procmail is not egrep"?
To quote the procmail(1) manpage:
To make `egrepping' of headers more consistent, procmail
concatenates all continued header fields; but only inter-
nally. When delivering the mail, line breaks will appear
as before.
Ah! Missed that one. Thanks! That actually makes life a lot easier.
Regards,
Richard....
