Sure...
:0
* ^(To|Cc):.*,.*,.*,.*,.*,
{ action }
This simple recipe has many limitations, though. It doesn't balance
between the To: and Cc: headers, for example. You could break it up
into two recipes, one checking To: and one checking Cc::
:0
* ^To:.*,.*,.*,.*,.*,
{action if matched here}
:0
* ^Cc:.*,.*,.*,.*,.*,
{action if matched here}
Another problem is if the recipient has a comma in per name, e.g.:
To: "Morse, Samuel" <smores(_at_)camp(_dot_)fr>
The myriad ways of forming electronic mail addresses make it very
difficult to check for possibilities such as this. It can be done,
but may be more trouble than it's worth.
Is this what you wanted?
