[snip - dawn of light - procmail might not be correct binary]
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.

Uhm, any particular logic behind why you were running your own procmail 
binary?  Searching back in the old memories, might it have been because 
there was trouble getting the host-provided one to work?

I did it ultimately to get beyond 3.11pre7.  I don't remember why I did it 
earlier.

When I moved, I removed the bin directory, since I did not ever expect to us
e
it again.  Rather than reinstall my own procmail, I just used the version in
/apps/bin.

... which hasn't yet been demonstrated to work.

You never did answer the question about whether you've tried to run 
procmail locally on the server - that would have also been an indicator.

I did try it.  It turns out the server is running Solaris 2.5, with a 
different /apps/bin that does not have procmail installed.  I reinstalled my 
own procmail, and that works.
