Perhaps nobody has the time at this moment to drop what they're doing to
explain it to you. I know that I've spent much of the past week dealing
with answering other people's questions (elsewhere) for nothing in return
-- perhaps other people have this same malady.
An attitude like the one you're expressing above _will_not_ result in the
type of response you seek. It's nobody's job here to ensure that you get a
reply to your question right away. Below is something to start with - it's
*ALL* I'm going to contribute.

Well, you'll need to run it through a demime utility to eliminate the MIME
quoted-printable character escapes (those =3D for instance). Procmail does
*NOTHING* for MIME messages - the content that procmail is looking at is
the binary exact of the message as received by the server.
try running:
'apropos mime'
at a shell prompt on your host.
The following, while unbelieveably inefficient, should manage to match:
:0
* B ?? (a\>*d\>*v\>*e\>*r\>*t\>*i\>*s\>*e\
\>*d\>*o\>*m\>*a\>*i\>*n\>*\.\>*c\>*o\>*m)

Pump the message through an external process to clean up the MIME encoding,
and return the message body into a variable, which you can then do matches
against:
CLEANBODY|=mimencode -q -u
:0
* CLEANBODY ?? advertisedomain\.com
$ignore
If you need something more complex than this, just write the shell script
or external program to massage the message as needed. Or find someone and
pay them to do it for you.
