Yep. Use the following recipe as an example, and make the

* ^Subject:.*Trafficview Report: Estimated freeway driving time is \/.*
| /usr/local/bin/formail -I "Subject: Drive Time: $MATCH"
So, to change a subject of "[LCP] some text I don't know" to "some
text I don't know", I'd use the following?
:0 fhw
* ^Subject:.*[LCP] \/.*
| formail -I "Subject: $MATCH"
Is that right?
Not really... Iirc you need to quote the brackets, so the recipe
should look like
* ^Subject:.*\[LCP\] \/.*
However, this does not remove multiple occurrence of [LCP] which
partially happends to some of the lists I'm subscribed to - due to
broken software.
That's the reason why I don't use procmail/formail but sed. It's
not clean though...
