Newbie .forward not working

I set up procmail using the man page and it works when I
postprocess the mail with the shell script from the man page. But
when I place .forward in $HOME it does absolutely nothing.

This is my .forward:

"|IFS=' '&&exec /usr/bin/procmail -f-||exit 75 #djohnson"

ls-l shows:

-rw-rw-r--   1 djohnson djohnson       58 Oct 21 09:39 .forward

I am using Red Hat Linux 3.0.3, procmail-3.10, sendmail-8.7.6.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Dwight Johnson
