Thanks for your help. With your giude, I underestand that the problem is with
mailtool(Mail client on Openlook environment)
When user using mailtool, their mail don't receive untill they close mailtool!
To quote the FAQ from the procmail source tree:
16. My mailtool sometimes reports that it is confused about the state of
the mailbox, or I get "Couldn't unlock" errors from procmail now and then,
or sometimes it simply seems to hang just when new mail arrives.
This is a known bug in the OpenLook mailtool. It holds on to the
kernel lock on the mail-spoolfile most of the time, and releases
this lock when it shouldn't. Either ask for a bugfix from your
vendor (I'm not sure if a bugfix exists), or make sure that during
the compilation of procmail both the fcntl() and lockf() locking
methods are disabled (see config.h).
To disable fcntl() and lockf() locking, put the following two lines in
config.h and recompile procmail:
#define NO_fcntl_LOCK
#define NO_lockf_LOCK
