Hoi,
since version 0.29 simplemail does support the AmigaDOS pattern
matching. There could be some "wrong" working filters now
because of special characters for the pattern.
These characters are: ? # ( ) | ~ [ ] % '
If you want to use this characters you have to escape them with
an single apostroph, eg if you have a filter for the subject with
"[SimpleMail-usr]" you will run into trouble because this filter
matches any subject which contains one of the chars "S", "i", "m",
"p", "l", "e", "M", "a", "i", "l", "-", "u", "s" or "r".
You have to change it into -> '[SimpleMail-usr'] (notice the single
apostroph in front of [ and ].
For now Simplemail does also an automatic substring search and
all pattern are case insensitive (this is because otherwise all
filters would have stopped working).
