No. That rule would match every subject line, in strange and bizarre ways. For example, it would match "Subject Rules" because the letter R is in the "opportunity" group, the u and l in the "luxury" group, and e and s in the "cowhides" group. Since you have zero or more letters in those groups, it matches. And overall, you have zero or more matches on every line, even if you have zero.... You would be wise to read perldoc perlretut. > header LR Subject=~ > /[independent]*[opportunity]*[luxury]*[cowhides]*[win]*[money]*[rep]*[save]*/i -- Daniel J McDonald, CCIE # 2495, CISSP # 78281, CNX www.austinenergy.com
