I am a big biased. AFAIK it is written in Perl. I am very happy that I did not
need to use Perl since 18 years now.
The regex where great. But time has changed.
Everytime you use regex today, I feel like being on the wrong track.

Thanks for including the disclaimer "It's my personal opinion and
feeling. No facts, no single truth." in your 'guidelines' (many of
which
I disagree with). I just wish you had included the same disclaimer in
what you wrote in this thread, instead of presenting your personal
opinions and beliefs as facts.

Also, this has drifted far away from being related to Dovecot in any
useful way.

You disagree? Great! I am curious. What is wrong in my personal
guidelines?
