so if I want to move to /dev/null every message having the word (and only
this single word) 'unsubscribe' in the 'subject' line, I'd have to write
this to .procmailrc ?
########################
:0:
* ^Subject:.unsubscribe #no asterisk before 'unsubscribe'?
/dev/null
#######################
and procmail /dev/nulls this message only *after* I downloaded it to my
machine, correct? ....
