Are you sure you wanted to block ALL quits with . anywhere in them?

Try ^\.$

Yes, the first example was sufficient. My comment didn't refer to matching the message you gave us, but to your pattern's extraordinary potential for false positives.

It would match:
.
Hello.
Welcome. This is not my quit message.
I eat moss. Do you?

Try this regular expression (for your config, not the command):

Code: Select all

^\\.$

Or this command (as an IRCop with the GLINE privilege):

Code: Select all

/spamfilter + q gline 7d You_irritate_me. ^\.$

Also: A spamfilter in your configuration file will not match anything on other servers on your network. The command will.
