Procmail keeps hanging waiting for lock file

1996-08-29 11:39:41
I'm having problems with procmail hanging waiting for a lockfile
that doesn't exist. This is both with versions 3.10 and 3.11pre4.

This is what happens when I run the queue manually:

nvcc:# /usr/lib/sendmail -q -v

Running AA02349
debbie... Connecting to  (local)...
^Cprocmail: Terminating prematurely whilst waiting for lockfile 
"/usr/spool/mail/debbie.lock"


There is *no* /usr/spool/mail/debbie.lock. If I switch sendmail
back to using /bin/mail for delivery, the mail will get delivered.
