I use sendmail nad procmail as local delivery agent. What do you mean
with the command line the runs procmail?
You probably have a section in /etc/sendmail.cf that is something like
[*rummages around to find a machine with sendmail on it....*] something
like:
Mlocal, P=/usr/bin/procmail, F=lsDFMAw5:/|@qSPfhn09,
S=EnvFromL/HdrFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL,
T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix,
A=procmail -a $h -d $u
That line 'A=procmail -a $h -d $u' gives the command line to use to
invoke procmail. The '-a $h' effectively makes procmail consider '$1'
to contain the mail extension that you're looking for. If your command
line isn't like that then it may not be setting $1 for you.
The procmailrc I posted is .procmailrc, which procmail will run
while performing local delivery, I am right?
Yep.
You mean, there is no way to change the value of HOST on procmail?
HOST is a special variable with a defined effect (the current rcfile
exits) if you set it to a value other than the current host name. That
absolutely should not stop you using some other variable (such as
MYHOST) for such a purpose.
I'm not sure if I'm helping you get any closer to the problem, though
