I followed up with a way to do that in a subsequent email. Braces work.
On the other hand for processing efficiency I'd be inclined to only lock
each spam filter rather than the whole set of three. I'd also make sure
the markup from one filter is not included in the input to subsequent
filters if anything like a Bayes filter is involved.

Thank you for the fast reply,
But I need somethig a little bit more complicated:
I want to ensure the a whole .procmailrc execution will be completed before a next
begins.
I am trying to do a small experiment : In my .procmailrc I call to 3 different
spamfilter, and then I write the results to a file. there for I must ensure execution
completion before another execution begin.
Does anyone know how can I do it?
Thank you,
Asi

It is if you tell it to lock. If you are writing to a file then you do need
to "lock". If not then locking is not needed. You can name the locks or you
can use a generic lock. The man pages procmailrc and procmailex are good
friends here.
Format for a named lock
:0c: clone.lock
$home/mail/clone
Format for a generic lock
:0c:
$home/mail/clone
Format for no lock
:0h
<stuff>
And so forth
