Re: problem with unknown recipient

  Procmail is giving us a periodic error, and I cannot determine why.
It will not deliver mail to some users.  For example:

  procmail: Unknown user "kiteie"
  550 kiteie... User unknown

However, this user does exist and does have a valid mailbox.  Subsequent
mail sent to this user will work.  For some reason, procmail seems to be
failing randomly and selectively.  :(

What version of procmail are you using (type 'procmail -v')?  Also,
does the username in the passwd file have any capital letters?  If
the account name has uppercase letters and you're running procmail
3.10 or earlier, you'll see this message.
