MAILDIR=$HOME/mail

LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail.log
#VERBOSE=yes

:0
* ^From:.*postmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxx*
/dev/null

# Is it to both support@ and user1@
:0
* ^TOsupport@
* ^TOuser1@
{
    # copy and deliver to support
    :0 c
    $MAILDIR/support

    # final delivery to friends.
    :0
    $MAILDIR/friends
}

# Process single addresses.
:0
* ^TOsupport@
$MAILDIR/support

:0
* ^TOuser1@
$MAILDIR/friends

# Presumably somewhere down here you have a final delivery address if
