Thanx Tim, you have at least given me a better understanding of what is
going on.  I have not yet figured how to get the desired information to
Procmail.

Can anyone give me any assistance with determining what I need to pass to
Procmail in order to have access to the email address to which the original
e-mail was sent?

Again, all I'm trying to do here is have the challenge/confirmation e-mail
link use the same domain as to which the original email was addressed.

Jz.
