Remove URL from lines but keeps the text

[Thiago Morais]

Hi Folks

My company antispam system insert a URL in each attach files received by email and cause a discomfort to read the content. How can I solve my discomfort to removing the URL inserted by the antispam, but keeping the rest of the text?

See below some lines of the issue.

@Thiago-Morais ,

To get rid of http/https URLs in any block of text,
FIND = https?://\S*
REPLACE = blank/empty
SEARCH MODE = regular expression

https?://\S*

Your suggest worked, but I need to fix a little detail on the expression.

I need to remove the URL until the equal sign and let rest of the text, how can I do that?

Heelo, @thiago-morais,

Two questions :

• Are all the URL lines in a single line or may be split into several lines ?

• Your URL lines contain two = signs… What is the exact part to delete ? From beginning to the first or to the second = ?

Best Regards,

Hello @guy038

As you can see in the line, there are two URL, I need to remove the both and keep the rest of the text after the equal sign.

Current:
*> https://protect-eu.mimecast.com/s/tIwRCoY3kuB8G8zGs2IZH5?domain=1.1.0.0 https://protect-eu.mimecast.com/s/-sM8CO7mzS0wXwKXukLavD3?domain=200.182.239.29 0 4230 65450 ?

How should be:
*> 1.1.0.0 200.182.239.29 0 4230 65450 ?

Hi, @@thiago-morais, @peterjones and All,

Then, two regex solutions are possible :

• If each URL line belong to a single line :

  • SEARCH (?-s)https?://.+?=

  • REPLACE Leave EMPTY

• If some URL line(s) may be split into several ones :

  • SEARCH https?://\S+?=

  • REPLACE Leave EMPTY
