MailReport Filter Syntax Continued

[SuperTechie]

Re: Mailreport filter syntax

If it helps anyone else, similar to what was posted years ago I was trying to find only certain IP addresses in a log using a filter like this: ,10.75.
While that would find all of the lines with IP 10.75.x.x, it would also find all of the lines that had a ,10 and a 75 somewhere else in the line. Essentially it seems the period is working more like an "or".
With some help from a programmer, I found this filter works:

,10\.75\.

With this filter, it only finds lines that actually have the IP 10.75.x.x

Have a look at regexp

It will explain why the "dot" has to be "escaped" (by the )
