Hi! I miss the placeholder definition possibility in the Search and Replace function. For example I have a blacklist for Spamprotection looks like this
[...]
*@amateur-ejacs.cc
*@amateurxxx.com
*@america.net
*@amerinet.com
*@ameritech.net
*@amexmail.com
*@amfax.com
*@amracing.com
*@ams.com
*@andreabocellimail.com
*@andrxlabs.com
*@angelfire.com
*@angenent.net
*@anguillanet.com
*@animus.net
*@annopieterse.com
*@antispam-rupar.regione.fvg.it
[...]
so here is used as placeholder a star '*', before '@'. This means don't accept any mails from any user from this server. So now I want to edit this list. For example I want to remove all servers that end with '.cc'. I have the following syntax *@someserver.cc and I want to search for all the servers using placeholder which I define in a textfield, for example '~', and mark a checkbox that I want to use a placeholder. Best Regards!
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Not totally sure if this is what you want, but you can currently use "wildcards" in a search if you check the "Regular Expression" box. Using regex "." would be a wild card - but only for a single digit. Adding a start to that -- ".*" would extend that to mean, any character/any number of charaters.
It wouldn't work fist, then I corrected the mask to
\*@[\w-_]+\.cc (before: \*@[\w-_]+.cc )
When I searched, it also found expressions that just contains 'cc', *@harbourfrontcc.ca for example.
But now have anybody a solution for that expression *@moka.ccr.jussieu.fr? It was also found, because it contains '.cc'.

OK! I've done!
Just add a '$' at the end. Here is the complete '\*@[\w-_]+\.cc$'. It could be easier! Thanks to all and special thanks goes to bdb4269 for the link to regex!!! Best regards

This is a great tool for trouble shooting/learning regex's. It will let you type in regex, and it will show you results in realtime, an a sample set of data. So you tweak your regex to select exactly what you want without anything you don't.

You should use Regular Expression!
In Notepad version 4.1.2 type this expression:
\*@[\w-_]+.cc
In older version type expression:
\*@[0-9a-zA-Z-_]+.cc
Not totally sure if this is what you want, but you can currently use "wildcards" in a search if you check the "Regular Expression" box. Using regex "." would be a wild card - but only for a single digit. Adding a start to that -- ".*" would extend that to mean, any character/any number of charaters.
For more into on regular expression, check this out. It's a good guide to get you started with RegEx's. http://www.linuxfocus.org/English/July1998/article53.html

Re the regex learning tool, just be aware that Notepad++'s regex is almost certain to be different in quite a few areas.
