why am I getting "MAILDIR=/"

I am trying to get procmail 3.15.1 working on a sun ultra sparc running 2.5.1. I
tested my .forward file and it seems to be working

# /lib/sendmail -v procuser </dev/null
Warning: .cf file is out of date: sendmail 8.10.1 supports version 9, .cf file
is
version 8
/home/procuser/.forward: line 1: forwarding to "|IFS=' ' && exec
/usr/local/bin/pr
ocmail -f || exit 75 #procuser"
"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/local/bin/procmail -f || exit 75 #procuser"... Connecting
 t
o prog...
"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/local/bin/procmail -f || exit 75 #procuser"... Sent


...but procmail is not. When I ran the following test

# procmail DEFAULT=/dev/null VERBOSE=yes /dev/null </dev/null
procmail: [1893] Wed Feb 21 09:24:47 2001
procmail: Rcfile: "/dev/null"
procmail: Assigning "MAILDIR=/"
procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=/dev/null"
procmail: Opening "/dev/null"
  Folder: /dev/null

I see that "MAILDIR=/" which is incorrect is it not? Does this indicate that
procmail cannot find the .procmailrc file?

HELP!
