Python regular expressions OR

Solution 1:

re.compile("Sent from my (iPhone|iPod)")

Solution 2:

re.compile("Sent from my (?:iPhone|iPod)")

If you need to capture matches, remove the ?:.

Fyi, your regex didn't work because you are testing for one character out of i,P,h,o,n,e or one character out of i,P,o,d..
