This only occurs if the `local' mailer does _not_ have the `S' flag

the local_procmail FEATURE() sets the S flag for you.  (When the local
mailer is procmail, the local mailer should also have the f, h, n,
and P flags, and should _not_ have the r or m flags.)

The funny thing is, it *does* have the S flag, and *was* built using
the m4 feature...

% fgrep procmail /etc/mail/sendmail.cf

              A=procmail -Y -a $h -d $u

as you can see, it was built with m4 and *does* have the S flag. I
wonder if it's something to do with the fact that I'm running Sendmail
8.11.1... it could also be the check_local package which I'm running,
I suppose.

Neither of those should be causing problems like this.  Hmm, what
gets output when you do something like this?

        /usr/lib/sendmail -d0.1,11.12 -v another-local-user </dev/null


(They'll get a bodyless message, of course.)
