Ruud H.G. van Tol disseminated the following:
I wonder why I get that error from procmail if '-' is allowed?
You asked "is it legal" and dallman answered "not".
Well, I was just asking why, if the '-' is not the problem, why the
error?

Having a bad reading day Joe? <grin>
Let's look at Dallman's original reply (with your question included).
JOE> Is the '-' in 'RBL-Blocked' a legal character?
DALLMAN>Not for a variable name.
Now, let's rewrite that a bit:
JOE> Is the '-' in 'RBL-Blocked' a legal character?
GERALD> The '-' is *NOT* legal for a variable name. If you want the WHOLE
"RBL Blocked" in the variable name replace the '-' with a '_'.
