I am using procmail v3.11pre4. When a new message comes to INBOX, the
system says "you have new mail" , but if a new mail comes to any
folder specified by procmail, the system does not say "you have new mail".

How can I configure it so that it always prompts the "you have new mail"
message?

The builtin "new-mail" checker on most shells only checks the 
system mailbox to issue the command. The program "newmail" distributed
along with Elm can check a number of folders however and that is
probably what should be used to get this message even for mail
processed by procmail.
