Log file not written anymore

1997-09-16 17:33:54
For some reason, logs of procmail actions are not being written to my
log file anymore, since around noon yesterday.  I haven't made any
changes to variable definitions for some time, which are as follows.

#Set shell
SHELL=/bin/sh

#Set on when debugging
VERBOSE=off

#Replace ``mail'' with your mail directory (Pine uses mail, Elm uses Mail)
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail

#Directory for storing procmail log and rc files
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail

LOGFILE=$PMDIR/log
#INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/rc.test

SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail

I've also compared the above with a copy of .procmailrc dated several 
days before and there's an exact match.  The permissions on 
.procmail/log look okay.

The last change I made to .procmailrc was trivial, merely adding a 
new address to a line that filters certain e-mail to a folder.

Any ideas what might be causing my problem?  It's unnerving not to 
have a log of the actions procmail takes, even though my e-mail 
continues to be processed correctly as far as I can tell.  Personal 
e-mail ends up in my inbox, spams in the spam folder, and so on.
