hi all,
thanks for the help with my fgrep, formail issues.
i have a question about reg exp and procmail
i got the following header
From: "Sundeep Khosla" <sundeep(_dot_)khosla(_at_)xxxxx(_dot_)com>
my recipie
in my recipies i am looking for emails from "deepa"
:0:
* ^(From).*deepa*
frequentmail/deepa
This recipie matched. even though there was is no "deepa" in the from field, but
* ^(From).*deepa.*
didn't match and seems to have worked.
what is the difference between *deepa* and *deepa.* ???
isn't the difference "deepadeepadeepa" would match on the first rule and "deepa
deepa deepa" would
match the 2nd rule..
similar stuff happens with my other *rules*
all in all am a bit confused with this whole regexp thing.
Thanks
manoj
