I have been looking at the script for Small Mailing Lists that Sean
posted to this list in 2002. One section of the script puzzles me:
---begin snippet---
# This rule archives mail to the listowner in the list archive.
# Note this is valid only for TO: addressing.
:1 c: $listname$LOCKEXT
* $^To:.$listowner
|gzip -9fc>>$listname.owner.gz
---end snippet---
Hehe, that's some OLD code. I hadn't updated that in quite some time prior
to posting that (and I don't happen to use it any longer, since I run
various majordomo lists on that server now), and as Dallman has already
mentioned, the :1 is the number of conditions which followed, which was the
original procmail syntax (before it was changed to simply auto-count the
condition lines starting with *).

Please DO NOT carbon me on list replies. I'll get my copy from the list.
