Two ^TO questions

1996-05-22 17:53:09
Two quick questions pertaining to the ^TO macros...

1) The procmailrc man states that:

     If the regular expression contains `^TO_' it will be substi-
     [snip]

I've always used `^TO' as below...is the above `^TO_' *really* an 
<underscore>, or a <space> (I've seen some folks use underscores in 
places of spaces to show others that there *is* a space..such as From_).

2) The procmailrc man continues by showing the `^TO' macro..

     If the regular expression contains `^TO' it will be  substi-
     tuted by `(^((Original-)?(Resent-)?(To|Cc|Bcc)|(X-Envelope
     |Apparently(-Resent)?)-To):(.*[^a-zA-Z])?)', which should
     catch all destination specifications containing a specific
     _word_.

I've been using ^TOuserid(_at_)foo\(_dot_)bar for quite a bit of my recipes. 
But 
recently I started to see a problem. The above states that ^TO covers 
mail that has been Bcc'ed to the user; how does one know if one has been 
Bcc'ed if the Bcc headers are stipped? Currently, mail Bcc'ed to 
userid(_at_)foo(_dot_)bar does not match the above condition.

Thanks for any enlightenment in this matter,

Vince
