Please refer to 'man procmailrc', where the macro "^TO_" is documented.

Where do i have to fetchmail , exim and procmail (if any),,,

Huh?  I don't follow.

I'm probably going WAY out on a limb here, but perhaps you should consider reading the procmail discussion list and checking its _searchable_ archives. For instance, over the past couple of days, there has been a thead hauntingly similar to your inquiry. Although the subject line may be misleading:

        Re: New User: Locking file issue and other bits

Let me repeat a common mantra here: Procmail is not an MTA. using it to share a single POP mailbox across multiple users will eventually present you with a problem, and it isn't the fault of procmail when you can't resolve the limitation, because procmail wasn't intended to be used for this purpose (it can't make up data where the MTA has discarded envelope information - when there are MULTIPLE recipients within your virtualized POP account, you'll have a better understanding of this, as your MTA is very likely to deliver a SINGLE copy of the message and include NO X-Envelope-To: header).
