I'm doing that, but the theoretical configuration command above was
just one example of what I would like to do -- something like
"parameterized" commands. Other examples would be

send-hook ietf-\([a-z0-9]+\\)@ietf.org 'my_hdr From: My Name <ml+ietf-%1@MY.DOMAIN>'
folder-hook ietf-\([a-z0-9]+\\) 'my_hdr From: My Name <ml+ietf-%1@MY.DOMAIN>'
