|
|
Is there something I could do, to have MW Pro do case-insensitive pattern matching for Regular Expressions? Is there something I could add to the pattern itself to match, for example "Hello", "hello", "hEllo", "hellO", without actually specifying all the possible combinations?
Or does MW Pro already do that by default?

Case sensitivity on the local part of addresses could come in handy on some systems that allow its use.

You can use embedded modifiers to alter things like case sensitivity.
Regular expression: "(?-i)hello" will match "hello" but not "Hello" or "hEllo" etc.
Regular expression: "(?i)hello" will match all three but this is the default in MailWasher so the "(?i)" is unnecessary.
