[courier-users] Search for a good method to match From and To headers

[Alain NAKACHE]

Hi all,

I search for a nice regexp to match exactly an address collected in From or To headers.

Here is the context :

My maildroprc file builds 2 lists from headers 'From:' and 'To:':

TO_LIST=""

foreach /^(to|cc|resend-to|resent-cc):.*/

{

    TO_LIST = "$TO_LIST$MATCH"

}

FROM_LIST=""

foreach /^(From|X-Envelope-From|Envelope-Sender|Resent-Sender):.*/

{

    FROM_LIST = "$FROM_LIST$MATCH"

}

        Now each variable is filled with a list of newline separated email addresses.

In my $HOME/.mailfilter I want to match exactly an address in one of this 2 variables. My first try was to do like that :

if ( $FROM_LIST =~ /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ )

{

  ....

}

but it doesn't works.

Where is my mistake ?


Thanks in advance.
Alain

PS : I don't want to use the hasaddr() function because it only works with 'From:' headers.
