This is not correct. Sendmail still doesn't ship with Procmail
preconfigured, you have to reconf it using the right FEATURE. Unless
this was changed +very+ recently. (8.9.4?) Certainly not true for any
old v8 in any case.

Sendmail doesn't detect procmail at all. sendmail must be told that procmail is the local MDA (Mail Delivery Agent)...
