Matching regexps

Hi,
I'm having some trouble with matching. The regexp in my dovecot.sieve
file should match on email addresses, but does not.
# The code:
if header :matches "From" "<[a-z0-9-]*@[a-z0-9-.]*>" { set "sender" "${1}"; }
if not execute "grepfrom" ["${sender}"] {
if envelope :matches "from" "*" { set "sender" "${1}"; }
This failes to match Tamara Denning <tdenning at cs.utah.edu> when I
check that regexp against that string at regex101.com, it shows a
match, but the log (from sieve-test) shows:
348: header test
348: starting `:matches' match with `i;ascii-casemap' comparator:
348: extracting `From' headers from message
348: matching value `Tamara Denning <tdenning at cs.utah.edu>'
348: with key `.*<[a-z0-9-]*@[a-z0-9-.]*>' => 0
348: finishing match with result: not matched
I would appreciate advice on why the match is failing, or what I can
change to make it match.
Thank you!
Adam
