Sorting on the return path works better, as it has the list name in too
ie:

:0:
* ^Return-Path:.owner-linux-kernel-outgoing@vger.rutgers.edu
incoming/linux-kernel

Oh, and you may want to add that second ":" to your recipes, it make
procmail lock with, in this case, incoming/linux-kernel.lock. Ie other
lists/personal mail will be delivered without waiting for this instance of
procmail finnishing (you can specify the lock file if you want ;).
