trapping mail that has my name anywhere in the headers

1999-05-07 14:10:15
Trying to keep up with questions posted to multiple liservs, is not I am
sure a problem perculiar to me.  I have raised this question b4 on this
list but I guess I aint cracked it yet.  So here it is again.

The most important think I want to do is to trap into my default inbox the
mail that is a response to my question or any mail in that thread.
I assume that at least the original response will have the string
`eric(_at_)fruitcom' in it.  Somewhere in any of the headers.  Now I would liek
to trap this mail into my default inbox before it goes down and gets caught
by one of the recipes that puts it in my Mail/procmail or Mail/mutt or
whatever - where I may not see it for a while - possibly.

Is it feasible to have a recipe that lives ahead of all these others and
safely finds my address in the headers and puts the mail in
/var/spool/eric?

Thanx guys
