I want to delete spam-mails, especially mails with strings such as
$ 100 billions
in the body.
The pcretest utility says 'match' with
re> "\$\s*\d+\s+[mb]illion"
and
data> $ 100 billion
In the filter-file is the condition
if $message_body matches \$\s*\d+\s+[mb]illion or
(followed by other conditions)
But a mail with
$ 100 billions
is not discarded (no match). But if I correct the condition to
if $message_body matches \\$\s*\d+\s+[mb]illion or
I get
Filter error: failed to expand "$\s*\d+\s+[mb]illion" in filter file:
$ not followed by letter, digit, or {
I believe that in the first case of the condition (one backslash) the $ is
interpreted as end-of-line (the condition string isn't correct
transferred to the pcre-interpretation-routine).
I would thank you for comments.
