It does work. I pieced it together from the docs last night. I
suggest that you read section 6 of the manual (the main manual, not
the filter one). It explains what 'lsearch' is. It is not equivalent
to "fgrep". (you can do that with procmail if you want, though) Test
it with the "joe@???" address. Oh, yeah, for "string" use
${local_part:$header_From:}@${domain:$header_From:}
