procmail configuration

[Tom Allison]

I was rolling throught the install/configuration stuff for the tmda-filter with procmail.

I'm left with a few questions about the procmail recipe provided:
:0 w
| /usr/bin/tmda-filter
EXITCODE=$?
DEFAULT=/dev/null
(This is from http://www.tmda.net/config-server.html)

I was hoping that there would be some way to put tmda-filter into the middle of a procmail set of recipes for the following reasons:

I want to be able to filter some mail (spam tests mostly) before it gets to tmda-filter so I dont' have to even bother with it at all. At least I would like the option of putting really high scoring email into /dev/null

I would also like to be able to filter the email after it's been received by tmda-filter into mailboxes other than the default. How is this done?

Normally I do this using a long list of procmail rules like:

:0
* ^From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
buddy

But this would have to be done after tmda-filter has handled it.
Similarly, how is something like Debian-users handled?
From: contains a specific name
Reply-To: contains the list name
Am I sending out a lot of confirmation requests???
(My initial thought was to have procmail exclude FROM_DAEMON matches from getting to tmda-filter)
