You guys are all forgetting that procmail has a fairly efficient egrep
mechanism embedded.  Using a test on a filename is very inefficient by
comparison.  

By using "egrep -f" you can have a file of regular expressions which can
contain bad address patterns.

Didn't forget.  Didn't know.  But I did know about test and used it.

But thats why I read this list.

Thanks.
