It might be if I was trying block just that one. This is not what I am asking for.
If there was a function in SA that would strip characters out then no matter what way they sent it would create a string of just the words which then could be further parsed by SA. -T*h*i*s i_s n&o&t a s$t$a$t$i$c s^u$b*j,e.c^t -s^u$b*j,e.c^t o^f n*o*n*e s%t%a%t%i%c v^a_l*u$e^s etc... So instead of having 1000's of static statements express in SA rules the function would give SA rules another chance at finding list say "subject" after all the extraneous characters are found. Can some point me to whoever is running the Bugzilla so I can get the account issue resolved, so I can post this. Pleases!

So you could do header_substitute subject =~ s/[\*\^_$:.,]//g But in fact you never need to do that in your example header EXAMPLE subject =~ /t?h?i?s?i?s?a?n?e?x?a?m?p?l?e/i Is functionally equivalent Stuart Gall Systems Administrator ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------- Critical Error: REALITY.SYS Corrupted!
