Actually, for zero or more, you want *, not + (which is "one or more"):

  sip matches "sip:[ ]*@10.10.10.20"

  string1[\r\n\sa-zA-Z0-9]{0,30}string2

Adjust what's in the [ ]'s for whatever characters you want to accept in
the intervening space.  Curly braces say how many such tokens:

        {n,m}   At least n times, at most m times.
        {n,}    At least n times, no upper limit.
        {n}     Exactly n times
        {,m}    Nonsense (invalid)

Some suggested readings:

- man perlre, or Google, and search for "The following standard
  quantifiers are recognized"
- Mastering Regular Expressions, by Jeffrey Friedl.  Will hurt your head
  and teach you more than you ever wanted to know about RE's.

Thanks,

Hank
