Ken,

number
>of times?

no, we count/score one time per result of the regex, not per regex. Each 
result is scored only once - it does not matter which line of a regex file 
has matched - this is per design, because the complete file is merged in 
to a single regex and possibly optimized, which makes it impossible to 
reflect to a line in the source regex.

So if
'1000.000 million' is found multiple times, assp will score a single time

but if

1000.000 million
and
2000.000 million

is found, assp scores for each match

If two equal matching results have different weights, because the source 
regex was a different one, the highest weight will be used.

for example

\$\d{1,5}\.\d{1,3}\smillion=>0.10
\$\d{1,4}\.\d{1,3}\smillion=>0.20

Betreff:        [Assp-test] BombRe option to only match a given line once?




I have a line in my BombRe:

\$\d{1,5}\.\d{1,3}\smillion=>0.10

This is my attempt to give a slightly negative score to emails that match,
which is added with other negatives would hopefully cause a rejection.  It
seems to work well when there's only 1 match.

However, if an email talks about a budget and is legitimate and has 
several
lines in it with $x.x million, it gets scored multiple times.

Is there a way to make a single line only be able to match a certain 
number
of times?  I know that there's the bombReMaxHits, but I am talking about
allowing other lines in BombRe to match again, but only scoring the 
specific
one above once or twice.

Thanks!
