It might be easier to specify what characters you want to allow rather than the characters you don't. Based on what I saw in your list it looks like you want something like print $message if $message =~ /[^\x00-\x7f]/; This will print the string in $message if it contains any character other than the 7-bit ASCII characters. -- Chas.
