Hello,

I wish to block the messages which have [SPAM] in the subject.

For example, I want block a mail with "[SPAM] CheapestRolexRep1ica! Exclusive Rep1icaWATCHES Online, buy fake designerWatches letter" in the subject.

[SPAM] is written by the anti-spam of my supplier of my address.

How to write the rule?

Thanks for your reply.

The rule may look like this:
Header{Subject} =~ \[spam\]

Here is a brief manual on using the rules:

And this is a tool for testing the regular expressions:

Thanks.

I had tried this: Header{Subject} =~ [SPAM]

but it did not work.

Could you explain why?

It doesn't work because the square brackets have a special meaning in regular expressions. The expression "[spam]" matches any (one) symbol from a set of symbols, listed between the brackets: "s" or "p" or "a" or "m". As you can see I've added a quote symbol '\' before each bracket to make the RegExp engine interpret them as usual, non-special symbols.
