Fair enough. I'm left with my question to Jim, however, of how you manage to represent control characters inside the brackets of a character class expression? Or is that something you always have to work-around to avoid?
I just type them in literally, using whatever special-char-quoting mechanism is available in the text editor I'm using at the time.
From time to time I've resorted to something like: echo -e "section: \247" >XXX to get the special character into a file. Then I can copy and paste from that file using a variety of means, whatever works for the particular job at hand. But I've never had to do any of that in procmail.
