Thought that would be the case, thanks for clarifying that :)

Learning how the \/ extraction operator works is going to be my next project.
I'm still confused on it, but once I start playing with it, it should help. It's
probably what I'm actually looking for now though.

Thats about how I rewrote it, the only thing missing now is instead of
the header line being saved to LISTADDRESS, I'm looking to save the line
that grep is searching for, that way I can save it to that particular
folder if there happens to be a match. For example, grep is searching for
address(_at_)mailing(_dot_)com and finds it in one of the headers. I want to
have it
then run on the following
:0a
$LISTADDRESS
