Re: selective forwarding

I saw it but didn't realize it was answering this question... I still 
don't grasp it entirely.

You quoted this:
:0                                                                         
*^TOsome-mailing-list(_at_)somewhere                           
*^Subject:.*(a subject|another interesting subject or maybe a|keyword)
! 
someone-else-who-should-subscribe-themselves-to-the-list(_at_)another(_dot_)site

Would that mean that if my procmailrc had something like this:

:0
*^Subject.*URGENT
! 476tjl(_at_)ptsmail(_dot_)ptsem(_dot_)edu

would mean that any message which had the SUBJECT of URGENT would be 
forwarded to 476tjl(_at_)ptsmail(_dot_)ptsem(_dot_)edu?  Can these be strung 
together so 
the last line might look like this:
! 476tjl(_at_)ptsmail(_dot_)ptsem(_dot_)edu, username(_at_)somewhere(_dot_)ext
and the message would be forwarded to two people?
or
! 476tjl(_at_)ptsmail(_dot_)ptsem(_dot_)edu, somemailbox
so the message would be both forwarded and filed in 'somemailbox' ?

Thanks for helping to clarify this
