Got that with the .* and \: additionally.

However, why do I need a map file at all. If I omitt it, rspamadm configtest refuses.
rspamadm configtest && touch /etc/rspamd/.reload_needed && touch /etc/rspamd/local.d/.reload_needed
incomplete rule, missing map
cannot add rule: "SUBJECT_SOFT_BLACK_HEADER_REGEX"
syntax OK

So that brought the question, how to define it correctly. Why the map file if the regexp in the definition itself is all-encompassing for my goal?
