Well, my first one was pretty simple:

:0
* ^TO_cygwin-announce
{
    :0 c:
    cygwin-announce

    :0
    !cygwin-AT-cygwin-DOT-com
}

I understand some of what yours is doing, and some I don't.  For now, I
made mine look like this:

    :0
    * ^TO_cygwin-announce
    {
        :0 c:
	cygwin-announce

	SUBJECT=`formail -xSubject:`
	FROM0=`formail -X'From '`
	FROM1=`formail -X'From: '`

	:0fhbW
	| formail -I '' \
	    -I"$FROM0" \
	    -I"$FROM1" \
	    -I'To: cygwin-AT-cygwin-DOT-com' \
	    -I"Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] $SUBJECT" \
	    =I'Reply-To: cygwin-AT-cygwin-DOT-com'

	:0
	!cygwin-AT-cygwin-DOT-com
    }

I'll make sure I understand the rest of this on Monday when I have a
better work environment.
