Hmmm....Does the directory exist and are the permissions set so that users
have write access to it? I think the permissions should be something like
this.
[root(_at_)postal1 mail]$ ls -ld /var/mail
drwxrwsrwt 4 root mail 7168 Dec 20 15:35 /var/mail
Check the parent directories as well, to make sure that they are set
so that users can read and execute (in the case of directories it means
searchable).

Hy everybody
I put a /etc/procmailrc on my system tu make procmail writting to
/usr/spool/mail/$LOGNAME instedd of writting to
/var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME but I have this problem,
the /var/log/procmailrc.log reads:
procmail: kernel-lock failed
procmail: kernel-unlock failed
this is my /etc/procmail:
LOCKFILE=/usr/spool/mail/$LOGNAME.lock
LOGFILE=/var/log/procmailrc.log
