Need to match subjects in email

In the back of my mind, I was thinking I may have to use procmail to
accomplish this task. Thank you for confirming that. I've never really had a
need to mess with procmail. But I guess now is as good a time to learn as
any. I'll just pack it in the wheelbarrow with perl, sql, ksh, bash, and
routing. :P hehe.

Out of my own laziness and lack of time, could you post a good link for me
to get started (for procmail). Thanks again!
