I have seen the EXTENSION match fine in the log output, but the next
line never matches.

This is because it's trying to match "Subject: .* returned..."
That's "subject" followed by a space, followed by any number of any character
except newline, followed by another space, followed by "returned".
Try "^Subject:.*returned mail" (the rest is unnecessary.)

I have tried this with the uppercase R, with the subject truncated at

Procmail regexp matching in the headers is caseless, unless you use D.

Ahh.  Ok, I get it now.  Thanks!  I actually found a couple other
recipes that were not quite right either.

Always leave room to add an explanation if it doesn't work out.
