Yes, but that'll probably put extra burden on the regex engine. You're
better off cutting the alternates down as much as you can, thus:

	* ^Subject:.*(victor|liam)

should minimize CPU usage. Not a problem for most home mail setups,
but it becomes an issue when you start doing it on a larger scale,
and optimizing your regular expressions is a good habit to get into.
