How about doing it in this way? # Now parse the message body + my $bypat = r/[\w-]+-by/; while (<$fh>) { ... if (/^(Signed-off-by|Cc|$bypat): (.*)$/i) { ... next if $suppress_cc{'bodycc'} and $what =~ /Cc/i; + next if $suppress_cc{'bylines'} and + $what !~ /^Signed-off-by/i and + $what =~ /^$bypat/i; Other than that, looking good.
