You shouldn't need perl for this. Header tests run on a string that
contains all the RHS's for the named header, so something like the
following should do it:
header __RECSPF_COUNT Received-SPF =~ /^.*$/m
tflags __RECSP__COUNT multiple

Sigh… “downside”.

What would be the downsize of having:
my @hdrs = grep($uniq{$_}++, $pms->{msg}->get_header ($hdr));
instead and counting ALL instances of $hdr, not just the unique RHS’s?

HeaderEval::check_header_count_range() not working correctly?
Hi.
I’m looking at:
# Return true if the count of $hdr headers are within the given range
sub check_header_count_range {
my ($self, $pms, $hdr, $min, $max) = @_;
my %uniq = ();
my @hdrs = grep(!$uniq{$_}++, $pms->{msg}->get_header ($hdr));
return (scalar @hdrs >= $min && scalar @hdrs <= $max);
}
in HeaderEval.pm and I’m not getting it. It inserts (once and only once) each
occurrence of a unique RHS for the header X. So if I had:
X-yzzy: A
X-yzzy: A
X-yzzy: B
X-yzzy: C
Then $uniq{A} would be 2, $uniq${B} would be 1, and $uniq{C} would be 1, so the
number of elements in @hdrs would be 3, once each for ‘A’, ‘B’, and ‘C’.
But if I have:
X-yzzy: A
X-yzzy: A
X-yzzy: A
X-yzzy: A
then $uniq{A} is 4, but the number of elements in @hdrs would be 1 (because of
the ‘!’ which only passes the first).
This seems counter-intuitive. What if I want to count the absolute number of
headers of type ‘X-yzzy:’ regardless of their RHS?
I’ve been seeing a lot of Spam recently with duplicative Received-SPF: lines,
but since they are all identical, it’s not nudging the number of @hdrs past one.
Thanks,
-Philip
