Re: priolist.mfp regex problem

Only marginally unintentional parsing.  But yeah, your solution
is correct.  (the "." is matching an arbitrary next character).

Lemme look at the source code.

Mailreaver:502 is:

    match <fromend nomultiline> (:w: :pm: :pat:) [:priolist:]  /(.)(.+)/

So it *should* have picked up everything after the first character
as the priority pattern.

Worse: it works for me correctly:


bash-4.2$ crm -v

No problem.  But sadly, no clue either.
