... or when somebody replies to the patch and the reply
gets caught by a program invoked from your .procmailrc
If Linus replies he has seen the patch, don't keep

Of course when the patch gets dequeued, the program should
send you a mail with the reason.

(and remember, this thing is designed to make Linus his life
easier, too)
