The regex part. I agree it's standard regex syntax, but the docs *suggest* that maildrop doesn't support standard (full) regexp.

It's a little frustrating trying to guess exactly which bits of grep regexp are supported and which are not.

The maildropfilter man page describes exactly what works, and what doesn't.

Well, see my original comment then? I agree that maildrop has nice docs and hence I suggested that the (abc|cde) syntax was documented (since it is implemented).

So *NO* the man page DOESN'T describe exactly what works...

Jeremy Kitchen then made a comment say "well, that's standard regex syntax, I don't know why you wouldn't expect it to work." The docs themselves say that the regexp is a "variation" of grep regexp...

So please try and work with me since I'm only trying to be constructive here.

Thanks
