Hi. Please don't cc messages to both evolution and evolution-hackers
unless you're announcing a new release :).

In 0.6, filters all suddenly turned into regular expressions. This is
a bug and will be reverted in 0.7, but until then you'll need to make
sure that if you use any regexp-special characters (like .*+[]\ etc)
in your filter subject/body rules, that you put a \ before them. Eg:

        Subject         contains        \[Evolution\]
