} I suspect you want compound IF statements, rather than nested ....
not normally... I tend to rough classify stuff first and then narrow down - this comes from previously using mailagent which was wonderful but a tad heavy on CPU, ie
if (contains x-list header) then
if (x-list contains exim-user) then
deliver to ~/MH/list/exim-users/
endif
.. other conditionals..
endif
Also, as I suddenly noticed when trying to write the above pseudo-code, you need a way of testing for a random header, and matching its contents. A regexp match and a glob match would also have their uses...

} I don't think it should know about MH folders (would be useful to me
} too, but it's not "clean"). What is the big loose about forking
} rvvstore ?
its not that big a problem although rcvstore can be sloppy about locking and so blow away sequences.

} Indeed -- that's in. It will fully parse the whole file before doing
} anything ....
I hope its a nice fast parser - my procmail recipes are now 500 lines long, although they do contains refs to mailing lists that I have left.
