How can I get procmail to strip this when handling mail from this list?

      # Extact everything in the Subject: header after the "[911] "
      # and use formail to make that the new Subject:
      :0 fhw
      * ^Subject: *\[911\] \/.*
      |formail -I"Subject: $MATCH"

I must be dense, here is the recipe I used to use, and now the one I tried w/
your suggestion above.

previous recipe:
:0:
* ^TOrennlist
porsche

New recipe:
:0 fhw
* ^TOrennlist
* ^Subject: *\[911\] \/.*
|formail -I"Subject: $MATCH"
porsche

with the new recipe, I get the following in my logfile:

From campbell(_at_)Starbase(_dot_)NeoSoft(_dot_)COM  Wed Apr  7 13:00:34 1999
 Subject: 2.2.5 troubles: NFS client internals and PPP (digiboard pcxx)
  Folder: linux-kernel                                                     3913
procmail: Skipped "* ^Subject: *\[911\] \/.*"
procmail: Skipped "|formail -I"Subject: $MATCH""
procmail: Skipped "* ^Subject: *\[911\] \/.*"
procmail: Skipped "|formail -I"Subject: $MATCH""


I'm not sure what I've done wrong, but I'm sure I've done something...
