> For a while now, ezmlm has been the bane of my procmail existence; its
> Mailing-List header was just different enough that all mail delivered
> through it ended up in a mailbox called 'contact'.
>
> Today I went and fixed it good; what follows here is a block of 
> procmail shlock  that'll find the magic identifiers for the ezmlm 
> lists and file them away by site and localpart -- the way that most of 
> the ezmlm lists I'm subscribe to are set up.

> # generic ezmlm filter, comes before mailman otherwise mailman's filter
