running script in .procmailrc

(sorry if send twice, but got pb with my email)


I am using TRAP to run a script that refresh my mail reader (gnus)
each time a mail arrives. Sometimes I don't want to refresh gnus.
Is there a way to disable the TRAP in some cases ?

Julien.



P.S. : Of course, I can do 

:0 c
* ...
| run_script

but the script don't need the mail to run, so IHMO it is not a good
use of procmail.
And this solution implies to have each statement written twice :

one for processing the mail :
:0 c
* ^SUBJECT.*log
$HOME/incoming/logs

and one for running the script :
:0:
* ^SUBJECT.*log
| run_script

Or perhaps, something like  :
:0:
* ^SUBJECT.*log
{
  :0 c  
  $HOME/incoming/logs

  :0:
  | run_script  
}

but anyway, it is not very easy to use.
