Close.  And will "buyer" start the line?  If not, change the ^ to below:

        :0 Bhf  # in brackets are a caret, space, and tab
        * ()\<buyer.*mailto:\/[^        ]*
        | formail -A"X-Remarks: Good Customer"

Mail will now, thanks to the `f'ilter action, continue through your rc,
hopefully to $DEFAULT.

Then, next recipe, will append your $MATCH.  Don't forget the lockfile:

        :0:
        | $MATCH >> path/to/good/list
