Could someone help me?
I was trying to use procmail as a Local Delivery Agent inside Sendmail.cf
(instead of /bin/mail).
So I have modified my sendmail.cf as:
Mlocal, P=/usr/local/bin/procmail, F=lsSDFMhPfn, S=10/30, R=20/
40,
A=procmail -a $h -d $u
...
So the problem is:
when I have tried to send me a mail for testing procmail, mail has come back
to me with this message error:

This is a sendmail config problem, not directly related to procmail.
For some reason, the left-hand side of the aliases mentioned,
"Postmaster" and "MAILER-DAEMON" are consider non-local by sendmail.
This means that something ugly was done to your sendmail.cf and some
debugging using the -bt and -d21.4 (or so) flags is in order. Back
out the changes you made the sendmail.cf one by one until the problem
goes away. If that last bit that appears to cause the problem looks
like it should work, then try posting to comp.mail.sendmail.
