I'm not sure the new regex is correct.

The old regex:

"\\([0-9.]+msg\\)[\t ]"

accepts "a sequence of 0-9 or ." followed by ".msg"

whereas the new regex:

\\([0-9.msg]+\\)[\t ]"

accepts "a sequence of 0-9 or . or m or s or g".

Instead, I think the new regex should accept:

accepts "a sequence of 0-9 or ." optionally followed by ".msg"

which I guess might be coded as this, although I'm not familiar with 
Emacs's exact regex syntax:

"\\([0-9.]+\\(.msg\\)?\\)[\t ]"
