My bad. I got an option wrong. Please remove the 'm' above.
I always get it backwards. According to 'man perlre' (the definitive
resource for SA regexes!) the 'm' makes '^' match every newline!
We want it to only match the beginning of the body.
So just remove it, and, as noted by others, add the '^' that was
missing... like so
... ]{0,20}[^a-z]{0,10}$/si
Hello,
You might want to change (\w+\.)+ to ([\w-]+\.)+ to account for
domains like polster-jj.de
