| Description | If a username contains a "-" then the sent forum post appears to send the email to another user.
Take for example a user called bugs-gti, the highlighted username in the sent forum post is bugs. So it appears that it matches the bugs user and ignores everything after the hyphen. Please can someone take a look. It is on vwgolfmk1.org.uk Cheers Ade |

It reads everything up to the line end, and then does an OR query based on all possibilities against all possible non-word cut points (i.e. any possible parse for a username). It picks the longest username matched.
