procmail

I use procmail to handle some serverside mail processing. I am trying to setup one email address on a server that support multiple domains (in the example below, domain.net and domain.com). I want mail sent to [email protected] to go to bob and mail sent to [email protected] to go to sara.

VERBOSE=off
LOGFILE=/dev/null

:0
* .domain.net
bob

:0
* .domain.com
sara

The above recipe seems to work quite well in that it catches incoming mail to domain.net and forwards it to bob.

However, instead of forwarding mail to domain.com to sara, it creates a file in /home/user called sara.

What am I doing wrong on this?
