I am trying to match posts from a mailing list which has a header like
this:
In the head, but not in the body, procmail treats a continuation newline
(one that is follwed by space or tab) as a space. "$" will not match to
a continuation newline in the middle of a header. The surest way to
match to such a continuation newline is ... wait a minute, you forbade
us to tell you:
I want to learn howto match these things, so please don't just tell me
to put .* there ...
That's contradictory. You want to learn how, but you single out the
correct answer as something you will not accept. That leaves us three
options: (a) defy you and tell it to you anyway, (b) send no response at
all, or (c) post a wrong answer.
I'll choose to defy you: use .* or (\<)* or (\>)*; I would not recommend
using a literal space because the next message with that header may not
have that break, or it may have the break somewhere else in the header.
