This reply grew a bit long. Most of it is just verbatim output from

This still has nothing to do with Sendmail acting strangely. But if
your Sendmail is strange in other respects, as you write, then maybe
that's the root of the problem?

Not errors, just curious messages. Here's a trial run -- interesting
parts are underlined with ---------:
$ cat scratch/.procmailrc
VERBOSE="yes please!"
