I just do that manually -- save the report to a particular email
folder after I've looked it over.  But yes, a procmail recipe
would be even better.

Personally, I like keeping the headers -- that way, if I'm
looking for the reports that match certain criteria, I can often
use my mail client to give me a filtered view of them.  But if
you want the headers stripped, just have procmail pipe the emails
to a script which does that.

The animal that coils in a circle is the serpent; that's why so
many cults and myths of the serpent exist, because it's hard to
represent the return of the sun by the coiling of a hippopotamus.
