As far as I know, that code has always worked pretty good.

If you use procmail, you can have it burst digests for you.  Here's a
couple of recipes I've been using for some time now:

# Risks Digest
:0
* ^Return-Path:.*((owner-)?risks(-owner)?|risko)@
* ^Subject:[    ]*RISKS DIGEST
{
	:0c:
	risks-digest.spool

	# Split the digest, since digests suck
	:0f:risks.spool.lock
	| formail -ds >> risks.spool

	:0
	/dev/null
}

# cola via email
:0
* ^(Sender|Return-Path):.*owner-[lL]inux-[Aa]nnounce@
{
	:0c:
	lnx-announce-digest.spool

	# Now attempt splitting the digest
	:0f:linux-announce.spool.lock
	| formail -ds >> linux-announce.spool

	:0
	/dev/null
}
