  Does anyone know what the compile settings are for procmail on the Cobalt
RaQ3? I have the feeling Sun (nee Cobalt) mucked around to get procmail to
follow the goofy sym links they set up, but I'm _really_ hoping it's a simple
config setting. (Yes, kids, I screwed up and updated procmail to the
recently-released 3.15.2, which broke the RaQ's email completely. And yes, I
forgot to make a backup of the original procmail, which I _think_ was a
3.13.x version. I will be slapping myself around for not making the backup
later, after I get this problem fixed.)

This just involves the mailspool, not .procmailrcs, right?  On that
assumption, is there a regular pattern to where the mailspool
symlinks point that could be coded up in C and dropped into procmail's
src/authenticate.c file?

If not, do you know whether the other mail applications, like the pop3
and imap daemons, use dotlocking?  If they do, do they put the dotlocks
in the ostensible mailspool directory, or do they dotlock the 'real' path?
