Thank you, I got it.

Yes, the syntax of ~/.procmailrc

I see all the examples, but there is not a real tut as to what a : character 
does when it is not the leading char on the line.  Many other such questions 
are similarly unanswered in the available man pages.

:0
and 
:0:

as the indicator for a new recipe?

Maybe I can decuce that from the srcs I just pulled.  Thanks.
