I'm trying to build an AutoNotification Intercept profile for Gmail notifications that uses the Notification Title filter with a partial match.  I've successfully gotten it to work using the entire Notification Title, for example a title like Bilbo Baggins the Hobbit, however, I want it to trigger for titles that contain just one or two words of the title, e.g. Baggins, or Baggins the.  My purpose is to not have to build a new profile for a contact that uses various emails all with variations of his name.  I've tried *Baggins*, *baggins*, etc. with and without the Regex being checked.  Without Regex checked off it doesn't trigger, with Regex checked I'm getting an improper syntax message.  Any help would be appreciated as I'm not really a techie type person -- I have only the barest of understanding of Regex and the like, and usually can succeed by a combination of trial and error and dumb luck.

Well, I think I figured it out. Just use any of the words for Notification Title, no asterisks, make sure exact isn't checked, and that case insensitive is.
