I fail to see how these two can match. The regex pattern 
".*SNMP_COMMUNITY.public.nxg21:TEST.*" does not match the filename
"/export/home/nmsbb/client/tmp/TEST" 

Filenames are matched with the names you provide, not some (random)
filename at the end of a symlink chain.

Could you send me (directly) a copy of the relevant portion of your
client's ~client/tmp/msg*.txt file, and your entire hobbit-clients.cfg 
file?
