I want to set up something that will send this email to 
"postmaster(_at_)mydomain(_dot_)com" but also return the email as 
undeliverable. Just like in "real life" when you send email 
to someone and the name is misspelled, etc.

Why do I get the feeling more than half of the mails to Procmail-L
lately are problems with something Procmail wasn't designed to do?
(Then maybe it should be redesigned to include this functionality?)

     * ^TO.*me
             ^^
But basically I just want to point out that you shouldn't be using .*
after ^TO -- the ^TO construct already contains this, albeit a
modified version which is better bounded.
