I use this
"\( \|^\)\(\>\=\)\([;:8]\{1}\)\([-^]\=\)\([)(><}{|/DPb#@&*\*]\{1}\)"
Overall I like it, but it does catch a very few strays, and it does
catch the leading space if it is there. It won't catch smiles not
separated by words like this:) Not sure if I want to keep it that
way, but to catch those too, I would use this:
"\(\>\=\)\([;:8]\{1}\)\([-^]\=\)\([)(><}{|/DPb#@&*\*]\{1}\)"
BTW, I use this with vim as my pager, not sure how it will work in the
mutt builtin reader.
