That brings up what I feel is the one thing that I'd like to see in a future 
version of procmail.  The ability to delimit multiple MATCH's in the manner
of /(.*)(.*)/$1$2/ syntax.  As it happens, it is Match to End, which is 
useful, but not as flexible as it could be.  (You can only match one thing,
and only to the end of the regexp.)
