Syntactically, this regex is correct, i.e., it matches only the string
containing "[ab-cd-ef]". You can omit the two ".*", though.
I think, the problem is the `any'. If I remember correctly, that's a
shorthand for To, From, Cc, Bcc, but not Subject. So probably you want
a rule like that:
("subject" "\\[ab-cd-ef\\]" "news.ab-cd-ef")
Bye,
Tassilo
BTW: If that's a mailing list, it's probably better to use the List-Id
header for splitting.
