You lost the ">" characters at the start of the lines. They were _not_
e-mail quoting, but were part of the rules. Maybe whatever you use to
read e-mail hid them from your view. So, in plain English, you need to
add ">" right before the "\r", and add ">" right before the "[0-7]".
The ">" is a rule command that asks to reject the input word if it is
shorter than the length given next (which in this case varies between
the many rules generated by preprocessor expansion).
You can also see and copy-paste the rules in the archived message here:
