Great. I've changed my rule to that, and am going to look at Adam's somewhat
enhanced version to understand what all it's doing. To wit:
rawbody LOCAL_5X_BR_TAGS /(?:<br\/?>[\s\r\n]{0,4}){5}/mi
I note that Adam used rawbody rather than body, so I presume that I should
change my rule to that as well.
Thanks...
