Hi,

`S' isn't necessary(or better to say I don't understand this flag much but
it seems to me that it's not your case to switch from SUID root to UID of
user at this moment - if there's something to be called from
/etc/procmailrc).
I think you're right about the purpose of the 'S'.
If his home directory is NFS-mounted from another system, the common
practice is that, when "root" tries to access his home directory, it
effectively gets uid=(-2). So it might have a problem reading
Carles's $HOME/.procmailrc file.
If this is the case, it will have an easier time reading it if it
"becomes" uid=<<Carles's uid>>.
