Thanks - this worked also, but put in the Parentheses instead of dashes. Now
I'm off to review the sed web pages, to see if I can figure out why it works
(just as important *to me* as the fact that it DOES work.) (well, almost...)
;-)
Thanks, guys!

SO... What is my problem? Well, I would like to add dashes in the
phone
number in the subject field to make it more readable, and I cannot
figure
out how to do it with either Procmail or formail or sed.
something like:
sed s/(...)(...)(....)/\(\1\) \2-\3/
should transform
1234567890 to (123) 456-7890
More like:
sed 's!\(...\)\(...\)!(\1)\2-!'
