Some good suggestions here already. While your original regexp should have worked in most cases, the optimal regexp for this situation is: /\borange\b/i (as has been noted previously) If you are still having problems with false positives, please post the exact rule you are using and put one or two samples of emails that generate the false positive in pastebin so that we can see exactly what is happening. Since we are talking about a body rule here, it is ok to munge the headers if you are worried about privacy. If you make any changes to the subject or body, please run it through SA afterwards to make sure it still generates the false positive. -- Bowie
