This doesn't seem to work for me :(

The regex always matches. As a test, I used:

deny
  !regex = \N\x20\w\N
  message = Mail is temporarily denied (1). Try again later - MS=$message_body_size - LC=$body_linecount - RE = "$regex_match_string"
  condition = ${if and {\
                         {<={$body_linecount}{1}}\
                         {<{$message_body_size}{20}}\
                       }{yes}{no}}


deny
  regex = \N\x20\w\N
  message = Mail is temporarily denied (2). Try again later - MS=$message_body_size - LC=$body_linecount - RE = "$regex_match_string"
  condition = ${if and {\
                         {<={$body_linecount}{1}}\
                         {<{$message_body_size}{20}}\
                       }{yes}{no}}



If then I sent myself a message with:

MAIL FROM: me@???
250 OK
RCPT TO: carlo@???
250 Accepted
DATA
354 Enter message, ending with "." on a line by itself
Subject: This is the header.
From: me@???

oneword
.
550-Mail is temporarily denied (2). Try again later - MS=8 - LC=1 - RE =
550 "\x20\w"

As you see, the $message_body_size and the $body_linecount
are correct (assuming the message body is one character larger
than the number of characters in the word).

The regular expression DID match however.
