After upgrading from kSPAM 1.4.2 to 1.6b2 I found some important good mails in the mail spam database.



I looked into the document properties and found the following value in KS_REASON: "Subject: REGEX RULE:47"



Looking for rule in document with rule #47 in the "By Rule Number" view of my configuration database, I found a regex rule (actually the first of all regex rules) that cannot be the cause for a match for that document.



The closest rule, that eventually could be the cause for the problem, is rule #49.

49 contains the following regex rule for the subject:

REGEX#:(?i)([sß5$]{1,3}\W{0,2}[t]{1,3}\W{0,2}([o0]|(())){1,3}\W{0,2}[cz]{1,3}\W{0,2}[k]{1,3})

If this rule fires if the subject contains the word "Aufstockung" then this is the reason for the problem.



Now I have three questions:

1. How are rule numbers counted in KS_REASON?
   
2. Has anything in Regex changed since 1.4.2?
   
3. How does a regex rule look that fires on "stock", but only if it stands as a word for itself
   
   a) at the beginning of the subject, or
   
   b) at the end of the subject, or
   
   c) inside the subject (preceded and followed by a space).
