Thanks for the clarification!

will /[:wbreak:]hell[:wbreak:]/ cover /^hell$/, /^hell / and / hell$/ ?

Hi,

Is there a way to distinguish whole vs. partial word matching with maildrop?

For example, matching "hell" vs. "hello", and "sex" vs. "sextant". So in a whole word match for hell, only "hell" but not "hello" would match, whereas a partial word match would match either one.

/hell/ matches 'hell' and 'hello' /[:space:]hell[:space:]/ matches only 'hell' but not 'hello' neither 'hell.'.

Use /[:wbreak:]hell[:wbreak:]/ to match 'hell', and not 'shell' or 'hello'.
