RE: [Sheflug] Procmail

Naturally I configure the regex's to handle all the cases for my local
users, admittedly should mail appear for a bogus user matching the regex
then it'll go to the wrong box rather than sysadmin, but with my user's
that's not a problem.

And what happens when the second "paul" shows up?  Maybe you'll
remember, but what if it's "paula" or "liapaulaiani"?

You really should use

^TOpaul@

(Of course you're hosed on local mail, but you should be able to come
up with a way to handle that, like making sure your mailer _always_
generates a FQDN To: address.)
