You have some bad ganja there.
This would be triggered only on a message From: *BOTH* domains, as each
condition line is *AND'd*. If I got a message that matches this criteria,
I'd promptly file it away as spam.
What gives with the inner ruleset just to dump it into a mailbox? Unnecessary.
:0c:
* ^From:.*(juno\.com|aol\.com)
temp
or, if you want to optimize the regexp (after you have a *PILE* of domains
all under the same TLD, you would want to):
:0c:
*
^From:.*\(((pacbell|somewhere|nowhere|juno|aol)\.com)|((sbcglobal|prodigy)\.net))
temp
or, if you wanted to explicitly or each line, to make it a bit easier to
read (at least on the RHS), use scoring (see 'man procmailsc', and search
the list archives for previous discussions about same - including "what
does the big number mean?"):
:0c:
* 9876543210^0 ^From:.*juno.com
* 9876543210^0 ^From:.*aol.com
temp
Arguably, the regexp should include a condition prior to it that matches
for a dot or @ symbol, so that you're not matching domains like:
ihateaol.com
there are other slipups too - aol.com.sucks.com will match .*aol.com as
well, but these are beyond the scope of the original query.
