month's time, the number of delivers to the mailboxes, so i can reorder
both within the conditional branches, and without them.  Is there a good
way someone has used to accomplish this?
Yea, turn on logging.  In .procmailrc:
        VERBOSE=off
        LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/log
Then, try running mailstat on the logfile when you get the whim to see
counts.  No manpage for mailstat, just run 'mailstat -h' for brief help.
        mailstat -k ~/Mail/log | less
Does nicely for generating and paging a report.  Mailstat is part of the
procmail distribution.
If you emit logfile items (I do for spam and advisories - I report WHAT
criteria I matched spam on), each of those will be counted and placed in
the output, which is handy for keeping track of how much matches one recipe
or another.
