You know what though. If my system doesn't have enough room to allow my

the mailqueue won't fill up.  :)

Then what's the point of using the -t flag?  If it's all one partition,
then presumably once it fills up then sendmail won't be able write a
queue file either, and it will be bounced anyway.  Seems kinda pointless
to me.

Oh, that's the whole point. We have three partitions. I'm hoping the -t
flag will store the mail elsewhere until the main partition clears up.

And in regards to a rcfile being incorrect, it should just deliver to my
inbox if nothing else.

Does it?  If you really munge up your .procmailrc I think it'll bounce/requeue
it, depending on what the garbage looks like to procmail.

Well, the -t can't hurt, right? If so, then there's no reason not to
include it.
