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.
