Hi Joe, The mailing list you mentioned got filtered out. Can you repeat it without the @?
I couldn’t get it to work until I changed the regex to [^\.]*.* I think the issue is [^\.] means any character, except ., exactly once. You can see this on regex101 (dot com). If this is an issue, it also shows up in the ListFile processor. Thanks, Greg From: "Joe Witt [via Apache NiFi Developer List]" Date: Thursday, July 7, 2016 at 3:51 PM To: default Subject: Re: GetFile Regex issue Greg, [hidden email]</user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=12711&i=0> is probably better but this is just fine. My regex foo gets weaker by the day. But I believe the regex says "avoid things that start with '.' but accept anything else". Looking here https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html The [^ starts a character class as a negation of those characters. And the .* says any character (typically excluding newlines) and any number of them 0 or more. Have you verified that it is not working?
