The alternative is to instead make assignments to the LOG variable to
directly enter text into the log, ala:

      # Assume loud headers are spam
      :0
      * ^Subject: [A-Z0-9\?!._]*$
      {
       LOG="cleanup.rc loud headers"
       INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/purge.rc
      }

I will try that.



In your original message you also wrote:
btw, purge.rc has this:

:0 hc:${HOME}/.procmail/headers.log.lock
| cat >> ${HOME}/.procmail/headers.log
{
  :0
  $TRASH
}

The above is syntactically incorrect: recipes have only one action.
It's not clear to me what the _intent_ of those lines are.  You want to
save a copy of the header in $HOME/.procmail/headers.log, obviously.
Do you also want to put the entire message in $TRASH, or are you just
trying to give up on message processing there?

It was my intent to log the headers of messages that are about to be
trashed, and yes, I want to send the entire message to the trash.

thanks
