Re: Ignoring Received headers when matching

David's answer, using scoring, is perhaps "better," and I certainly
am not disagreeing, but I'd go with something like the following
in "real life" because:
      1. I can never remember how scoring works  :-)
          This is actually reasonably important because if my
          .procmailrc starts causing trouble, I don't want to
          be digging through logic that I have to figure out again.

I'm glad I'm not the only one.  :-)

      2. I dislike checking the message body unless absolutely
          necessary, so I'd prefer to do the header checks first.

I had the same reaction.  So I discussed it with David privately.
His method does ultimately seem to be more efficient in this case.
He'd have to explain it here - I'm not up to trying to recall
the cogitation it took on my part.
