Unless there's some edge case that I'm not thinking of, adding a backslash to escape a period will never convert a non-match into a match. An unescaped period in an RE matches any character, including a period. An escaped period matches only a period. Adding the backslash _does_ better represent what the OP wants to accomplish, but the lack of it is not the cause of the RE not matching. (I'm not sufficiently familiar with how procmail uses REs to figure out what _is_ causing it not to match.) _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
