With `w' or `W' on a filtering recipe, procmail will recover the previous
text if the filtering command returns a non-zero exit code. Without `w' or
`W' procmail will recover the previous text only if the filtering command
doesn't accept the input.
So with `f,' `w' doesn't mean "wait" so much as "wrecover."
How about "watch", as in "watch the return code".
