Thank you, yes now it works with hello. It doesn't work p.e. with emails. This is my command to search emails: \([A-Z0-9+_.-]\+@\([A-Z0-9-]\+\.\)\+[A-Z]\{2,6}\)
p.e. myem...@mydomain.com hello myotherem...@mydomain.com hello mylatestem...@mydomain.co.uk Putting that in your command gives an empty output (it removes the emails).
