Thanks! So I'm trying this now:


acl_check_data:

  deny message = Invalid header (Subject:).
     condition = ${if and { \
                                  {def:h_subject: {1}} \
                {!match {$h_subject:}{\N[a-z]+}} \
              } \
          }



And I'm getting:


temporarily rejected after DATA: failed to expand ACL string "${if and {
{def:h_subject:{1}} {!match{$h_subject:}{\N[a-z]+}} } }": missing } at
end of condition inside "and" group


There is no brace missing. Any idea what's wrong?

This is supposed to deny a message when the message does have a Subject:
header but the Subject: header does not contain at least one of 'a'
through 'z'.
