I get regular emails from one list, that always end up in my Inbox, no matter
what I put in the recipes. At the moment these two recipes are in place:
How are you getting to the headers that you pasted into your message?
Directly (using a text editor or viewer to look at the raw message file
or mbox), or through your mail program?
If you are getting them through your mail program, could you look
directly? I have a suspicion that the headers are RFC2047 encoded: your
mail program decodes them and shows you "from: Debra(_at_)emblibrary(_dot_)com",
but the literal text in the email might be "from:
=?us-ascii?Q?Debra(_at_)emblibrary(_dot_)com?=" or even "from:
=?us-ascii?B?RGVicmFAZW1ibGlicmFyeS5jb20K?="
RFC2047 encoding was designed for characters that aren't 7-bit clean for
mail transmission, and it doesn't make sense to use them to encode
headers that don't need them, but I've been encountering more and more
email that encodes strings that don't need encoding. Procmail
unfortunately doesn't support RFC2047 decoding.
