Dear all,
I'm trying to implement Mailman topics through regular expressions.
However I'm not sure, what expression types are supported. I was trying
* ^(OK|WARN|CRIT|UP|DOWN) ->
* ^(OK|WARN|CRIT|UP|DOWN) \-
to catch subject lines like "OK -> CRIT some text" and "UP -> DOWN some
text" ecc. The regexpes above don't catch these mail, even though they
should be perfectly ok according to several regular expression testers.
Interestingly
* ^(OK|WARN|CRIT|UP|DOWN)
/does/ match, but I require the trailing " ->" to discern from other,
very similar subjects.
I'm not sure what the asterisks are, maybe bullets?
The regexp '^(OK|WARN|CRIT|UP|DOWN) ->' should match, e.g.
```
Subject: OK -> anything
```
I also didn't find any reference documentation regarding the supported
regular expression syntax. Is there any?

Out Mailman version is 2.1.9
Really? 2.1.9 is over 15 years old and 30 releases behind.
