DAMN! I was _SO_ close! I'm no sed expert, but I have been
working the last hour or so on nailing this down and here is what
I had:

:0:
* ^Subject:.*testxpert
{
:0 fWh
* ^Subject:.*\[Xpert\]
| sed -e '/^Subject:/ s/\[Xpert\]//g' >> XPERT
}

Didn't work of course, but I got the sed line right by the looks
of it. Should ever we meet, I'm buying the beer good man!
