If ($_ =~ /[Tt][Oo]\:.[Nn]ame/) {
Is the way I do it. 
If ($_ =~ /[Tt][Oo]..[Nn]ame/) {
Would also work

Subject: [asterisk-users] Incoming Fax to Recipient using OCR

I have fax working but since most people and services don't know how to Fax
to Extensions, I installed tesseract to convert the Fax to Text.

I really only need the First Page converted and will tell Faxers to make
sure they put To: Name on the cover page.

tesseract is converting the entire fax fine but its unnecessary and extra
time to convert the entire fax.

I searched and can't find anything on how to tell it just to do the first
page.  Does anyone have any ideas?

I created a perl script I borrowed but I don't know PERL.

I know PHP so can someone show me how to use REGEX in Perl to search the
output.txt file for the to: name or TO: NAME or To: Name

Then I want to do something like:

Switch($to) {
Case: "Roy" -> Email user at gmail.com
Case: "Jeff" -> Email user at yahoo.com
Default:
     Email admin at domain.com
}
