filename regex?

[Jules]

Am trying to modify a regular expression in a perl script at:
http://groups.google.com/[email protected]

the regex in this line:
if (my ($ft) = $_ =~ m|^(\d+)\.\d+\.|) {
has to match the file name of your mail files. I use mail files named like
so:

1049831444.88767.thunderbird.etv.net,S=2514

timestamp.procId.domainname,S=filesize

My mail files are named slightly different, for example:
1075497569.85543_0.host.domain.net

timestamp.procId_0.domainname

Can anyone help modify the regex to match my filename?

m|^(\d+)\.\d+_0\.|

would be the closest equivilent.

m|^(\d+)\.\d+_0\.|

might work. All I did was add the _0 after the
last set of digits. If that's not always a ZERO,
change _0 to _\d or use \d+ if it might be more
than one digit after the underscore. NOTE: This
REQUIRES the underscore to be present!
