WRONG.

Yes, I got that well and truly wrong. :-(

First, Procmail is case insentitive unless told otherwise (via a 
recipe flag), so, From/from doesn't matter one iota.

That is what I said in a previous message wasn't it?  (Although I think
I got the spelling of insensitive correct. :-) )

It also does 
not "ignore" headers that don't conform to the 
first-character-capitalized format.

I never claimed it did.


Cheers,
       Nick.
