	$ man procmailex

       Forward  all  mail  from  peter about compilers to william
       (and keep a copy of it here in petcompil).

              :0
              * ^From.*peter
              * ^Subject:.*compilers
              {
                 :0 c
                 ! william@somewhere.edu

                 :0
                 petcompil
              }
       An equivalent solution that accomplishes the same:

              :0 c
              * ^From.*peter
              * ^Subject:.*compilers
              ! william@somewhere.edu

                 :0 A
                 petcompil

       An equivalent, but slightly slower  solution  that  accom-
       plishes the same:

              :0 c
              * ^From.*peter
              * ^Subject:.*compilers
              ! william@somewhere.edu

              :0
              * ^From.*peter
              * ^Subject:.*compilers
              petcompil
[...]
---end---

See you later.
