44<h2>Description</h2>
45
46<p>SUBJECTREPLYRXP defines the Perl regular expression matching
47subject text that denotes a reply message. For example, the
48string "<tt>Re: </tt>" is commonly prepended to the subject
49to denote a reply.
50</p>
51
52<p>SUBJECTREPLYRXP is used by MHonArc for sorting and threading
53purposes. The regex defined is used in <b><tt>s///</tt></b>
54operation loops with the case-insensitive modifier. Hence, the regex should eventually fail if
55called repeatedly on the same string in an <b><tt>s///</tt></b> operation.
56If not, an infinite loop will result. In sum, SUBJECTREPLYRXP
57should <strong>NOT</strong> be able to match the null string. Also,
58the regex should be anchored to the beginning of the string.
59</p>
60
61<p>The SUBJECTREPLYRXP is normally changed to suit a particular
62locale or if unusual notations are being used to denote replies.
