On linking /usr/bin/true to $HOME/bin, an running this recipe
as a test,

   :0
   * ? $HOME/bin/true
   { foo }

I get:

  procmail: Executing "/net/u/1/d/dman/bin/true"
  procmail: Match on "/net/u/1/d/dman/bin/true"
  procmail: Assigning "foo"

Interesting, procmail does env. var. substitutions before
searching for an executable, when evaluating the "?"
expression?   I had thought by explicitly adding the "$" that
I was helping to avoid a shell execution, but it seems that
procmail was ahead of me on this.
