If I add a subject reject filter entry of "[foreign]" (without the quotes) all posts in the GoG, regardless of the actual subject, get marked "Subject Filtered" in the status column.

Are we not allowed to use brackets in the subject reject filter? I have another filter entry that starts and ends with colons, and that works without error.

I am using NB 6.30B2 b1695

"\[foreign\]"

Is probably what you want. brackets are used by regular expressions to define a range of characters. Your original RE said

"reject anything with an "f","o","r".... " and so on

Thanks Quade. That worked great.
