"!" is a procmail operator which inverts the sense of the test.
"|" is a standard regexp operator, which performs an `or' function.
See the egrep(1) manpage for more details on regular expressions.
There isn't an `and' operator for regexps. You would have to nest
multiple rules using "{".

The colon forces a lockfile to be used. I don't know what you mean
regarding the period.

If you use the `B' flag, procmail will check the body instead of the
header. If you want to perform checks upon both the headers and the
body, you need to nest multiple rules.
