Thanks for the tips.  Even though new-york.net doesn't run
sendmail, they've set things up so that mail to nm+procmail will
get filed into my procmail folder.  I just realized a weird thing. 
The last message that I received from the procmail mailing list was
March 3, 1997.  I've sent mail to Stephen asking why I've been
unsubscribed, maybe my attempt at forwarding caused messages to me
to bounce or maybe I was unscubscribed BEFORE I attempted the
forwarding and so the reason the forwarding `wasn't working' was
because there were no messages to forward.  I can't remember when
exactly I set up the `!nm+procmail' thing but I thought it was
March 5.  I feel like the universe is playing tricks with me.  In
any case, I'm glad that I'm doing these experiments on the procmail
mailing list where there are informed people who can help solve the
puzzle! 

Thanks,
Nancy
