Sorry about this... One more fix (... I've always had trouble remembering the difference between \W and \s). Actually, even-even-even better-better-better would be: ^From:\s+"\S+\s+\S+\s+[^@]+@hotmail\.com\s+\[[^\]]+\]"\s+<[^@]+@yahoogroups\.com>\s*$ There. That should be right. It's a regular expression that tests for a line that matches your string, starting with 'From:...' and ending with the end-of-line with optional whitespace following the '>' character. Again, if your 'score' program doesn't use this type of regular expression, I apologize for the noise. Since no one has responded to my previous 4 replies, I assume I should shut up now. Happy Holidays.
