Procmail issue with regex metacharacter

Hello,

if you use the E-Mail filter in Usermin and you use a subject search term like "[companyname]" procmail will use this as an regular expression.

I think it is better to add one more option in the drop down menu named "regex". In all other types (e.g. "start with") the regex metacharacter should be quoted...

A normal user does not understand why he should use a search term like "[companyname]".

Best regards, Patrick Niebeling

Good suggestion .. I will have Usermin automatically quote special characters in the next release, unless the user checks a box saying they want to use a regular expression.
