Ah, this is more telling - procmail probably wasn't COMPILED for the 
machine on which it is running.  Some bonehead admin probably just copied 
over some binaries.  Enlighten me: did you _ever_ use procmail on that host?

Yes, for several years, but I had my own installed version of procmail in my 
own /home/mcmaster/bin directory and pointed to my version from .forward.  
When I moved, I removed the bin directory, since I did not ever expect to use 
it again.  Rather than reinstall my own procmail, I just used the version in 
/apps/bin.

I just checked on swmail, which is where procmail really runs, right?  They 
are running Solaris 2.5 instead of the 2.6 running on the machine where my 
old account runs.  Also, they do not have /apps/bin/procmail defined in 
swmail's /apps/bin.  I think I need to reinstall procmail in 
/home/mcmaster/bin, or find it in swmail's directory, probably 
/usr/local/bin.  Do you think that would solve the problem?
