First of all, read "man fetchmail", the section entitled THE USE AND

Ok, so if I can sort by individual users using fetchmail, that
simplify's one part of what I need to do. So let's move on to the
second. Let's say some email address you have is a dummy address. You for
example go to MegaBucks Visa inc and give them the email address
"megabucks(_at_)raiden(_dot_)net". Then good old megabucks sells your
address to 3000
spammers. I now want to shut down that address using procmail. Which of
the recipe's you gave me would allow me to automatically take anything
addressed to "megabucks(_at_)raiden(_dot_)net" and just pitch it in the spam
folder?
That's the wrong approach. You want to get rid of the
megabuck(_at_)raiden(_dot_)net address so that the spam comming to it bounces.
Sounds to me like you are accepting mail for *(_at_)yourdomain(_dot_)tld and
your
ISP, in a fit or moronocity, combined all those infinite addressess
into a single email account. There is a solution for this, get a
better ISP.
