But with your regexp you cannot determine the head of the thread (w/o
the Re:) like the first line of your example
[ruby-talk:7097] Rubyize this method
You need to add a "?" after the (re...) pattern.
The regexp which finally works for me is now
set reply_regexp=
'^(\[[a-z0-9:-]+\][ \t]*)?((re([\\[0-9\\]+])*|aw):[ \t]*)?+[ \t]*'
