Default "Pattern" reference?

Hello!

I've been looking for a reference to the syntax of the "matches pattern" option in the Mail Filters. I've searched for "pattern", "regex", "expression" with no luck. (Perhaps I missed it?). Would anyone have a better search term for the wiki that I use to find the syntax? (I was trying stuff like:

(Sales|Order)

But it didn't appear to be working. I wasn't certain if perhaps there was an implied ^ and $ surrounding the pattern? And for patterns that search the From/To/CC fields, for an address like:

Avg Joe <avg.joe@gmail.com>

Is the whole line used? Or just the email address?

Thanks for your time!
-Nick

Just a followup in case someone else has the same problem. = ) I couldn't find the info in the wiki, but it looks like documentation to a slightly older version (the terms are different) in the help that is linked to on the zimbra web interface itself. So this isn't a true regular expression, but rather just supports:

* (same as the regex .*)
?
\ (escape)

Just in case someone else wanted to know!
