Best procmail logic for this

I want this logic

WHOTO=`formail -xEnvelope-to:`

if $WHOTO = ""
then WHOTO = `formail -xTo:`


My ISP puts mails for any recipient at this
domain in a single mailbox. I need to fetch
the mails with pop (I'm using fetchmail)
and deliver to various, mainly mailman
lists on running on the box but there will
be a few mails that are not deliverable.
The envelope seems fairly reliable with this
ISP. I can't rely on the To: because when
its a cc that comes in the To: remains set
to the orginal recipient not the cc.
I guess I shouldn't need to do the logic
above, just rely on the envelope but
a little bit of defensiveness never hurt.

I find sendmail to be a bit of a b**gg**er - if
I don't use it for a time I have to learn all the
logic again. So what's the best way to do the
logic above please.
