Philip has answered that already: the expansions of ^TO_ and
^TO already end in something better than .*[ <], and you're
making procmail do extra work to get less function.
I just added some info to my Procmail Quick Start about not
including .* or < after ^TO_. I've also added a link to the ^TO_
section of Jari's amazing pm-tips page. Please take a look and
let me know if what I wrote makes sense. It's at:

You request a local lockfile when a recipe delivers by putting
a second colon on the colon line, to the right of any numbers
or flag letters.
My Procmail QS has a link to the Pine sysadmin info on lock
files. This is useful to read even if you don't use Pine.
I've made a lot of little changes to my QS over the last two days
so if anyone has time to read through it and give me feedback,
that would be great.
Thanks!
