Hi Paul,

Further to my previous email, which there was an extra "}" in the
configuration, I have changed to use the below configuration based on your
suggestion.

<processor class="solr.RegexReplaceProcessorFactory">
   <str name="fieldName">content</str>
   <str name="pattern">[ \t]*\r?\n</str>
   <str name="replacement">&lt;br&gt;</str>
   <bool name="literalReplacement">true</bool>
</processor>
<processor class="solr.RegexReplaceProcessorFactory">
   <str name="fieldName">content</str>
   <str name="pattern">(&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;){3,}</str>
   <str name="replacement">&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</str>
   <bool name="literalReplacement">true</bool>
</processor>

However, the result that I get still has more than 2 <br>. In fact, the
result become worse, as you can see from the comparison below.

Example 1: The sentence that the regex pattern used to work correctly. But
with the latest pattern, it has now changed from 2 <br> to become 5 <br>,
which is wrong.
*Original content in EML file:*
Dear Sir,


I am terminating
*Original content:*    Dear Sir,  \n\n \n \n\n I am terminating
*Previous Index content: *    Dear Sir,  <br><br>I am terminating
*Current Index content*:   Dear Sir, <br><br><br><br><br> I am terminating

Example 2: The sentence that the above regex pattern is partially working
(as you can see, instead of 2 <br>, there are 4 <br>)
*Original content in EML file:*

*exalted*

*Psalm 89:17*


3 Choa Chu Kang Avenue 4
*Original content:* exalted  \n \n\n   Psalm 89:17   \n\n   \n\n  3 Choa
Chu Kang Avenue 4, Singapore
*Previous Index content: *exalted  <br><br>Psalm 89:17   <br><br>
<br><br>3 Choa Chu Kang Avenue 4, Singapore
*Current Index content*: <br><br><br>   Psalm 89:17<br><br>  <br><br>  3
Choa Chu Kang Avenue 3, Singapor4

Example 3: The sentence that the above regex pattern is partially working
(as you can see, instead of 2 <br>, there are 4 <br>). For the latest code,
there are now 5 <br>
