I guess I'll burn my copy of the 8.01 manual since it does not list on page 88 '[' and ']' as special characters. I looked in the 8.1 pdf and found it listed on page 70.

What do they do in a rule?

Thanks Christian...

It was the closing '\' that was the problem.

Sometimes IPSwitch's documentation is just a little too brief.


Thanks again,

Subject: [IMail Forum] Rule to filter re[34] spam

Having some trouble setting up a rule to filter some spam coming in.

Getting a lot of junk mail with the subject:

re[34] or
re[4] or
re[56]

I want to setup a rule so if any email comes in with re[ in the subject

(no number or closing bracket) it will forward to a special

SPAM holder account.

Since the '[' is a special character, you have to do some special setups.

I have experimented around with the solution offered by IPswitch in using

the '\' character, but it still isn't working.

I have tried \re[\ and re\[\ with no success.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Tony
