Re: Converting mmm to mm

I have a recipe that gets the date from a messages' received header and 
then sorts it into a mailbox based on the month and year.  trouble is, 
the date in the received header is

(J(an|u[ln])|Feb|Ma[ry]|A(pr|ug)|Sep|Oct|Nov|Dec)

and I want the folder to be:

2003-05 instead of 2003-May


Is it necessary to extract the date from the received header, or can
you just accept the month/year of processing via procmail?  That
would make it more manageable, because you could just:

:0:
* (whatever)
folder.`date +%Y-%m`
