Neither, because ^FROM is not a valid macro. 

Actually, one of them:
        :0
        * ^FROM.*Mr. Idiot
        /dev/null
should catch it, I think, since that will match (case-insensitive):
        From: "Mr. Idiot" <idiot(_at_)stupid(_dot_)com>
not because ^FROM is a macro, but because the regexp happens to match!

  (I think maybe it should be. Stephen says maybe one day it will be.)

I thought he promised that "^TO" and "^TO_" would be the last "magic"
macros.  "^FROM" could be syntactically tricky due to "^FROM_MAILER" and
"^FROM_DAEMON" as well.
