[Bro] Problem in using 'http-request-header' in Signatures

Hi,

I was trying to write signatures for detecting connections to a mail server.
I used
'http-request-header' followed by the payload to be matched.

	signature abcd
	{
		ip-proto == tcp
		tcp state established
		event "Connection to Mail server"
		http-request-header /.*mail/
	}

When I tried to start bro, I got the following error message:
"parse error at line x:" i.e., at the line where i have mentioned
http-request-header.
I did load the analyzers.

Can anyone suggest a way to handle this problem.


Thanks,
Dhanesh.
