  If the regular expression contains ‘^TO_’ it will be substituted by
  ‘(^((Original-)?(Resent-)?(To |Cc |Bcc) |(X-Envelope
  |Apparently(-Resent)?)-To) :(.*[^-a-zA-Z0-9_.])?)’, which should catch all
  destination specifications containing a specific address.

  If the regular expression contains ‘^TO’ it will be substituted by
  ‘(^((Original-)?(Resent-)?(To |Cc |Bcc) |(X-Envelope
  |Apparently(-Resent)?)-To) :(.*[^a-zA-Z])?)’, which should catch all
  destination specifications containing a specific word.

This example shamelessly taken from http://perkypants.org/dotfiles/procmailrc

  * ^TO_.*(jdub|jeff|president)@slug.
  SLUG/personal

Make sense?
