Sorry. It's early on a Monday morning and I'm easily confused. I tried
the following combinations:
- [sender] [contains] ["jaffleck"] [expression]
        ["(header-contains "Subject" (match-all "regression failure"
        "regression covermeter failure"))"]
- [sender] [contains] ["jaffleck"] [expression]
        ["(header-contains (match-all "Subject" "regression failure"
        "regression covermeter failure"))"]
- [sender] [contains] ["jaffleck"] [expression]
        ["(match-all (header-contains "Subject" "regression failure"
        "regression covermeter failure"))"]

I _believe_ that the first one is the one you intended, but see above
disclaimer.  None of these seemed to work.  Just for grins, I also
tried # 1 with match-any instead of match all.  No change either.

Well, I'll play around with this a little bit later after some coffee. 
Maybe I'll make more sense then.

        Thanks again,
