Then in each users folder there is a .procmailrc file.  For the partners
with blackberries it looks like:

MAILDIR=$HOME/mail/
DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail

Does a normal user have rights to write there?
Better leave DEFAULT as is.

Something completely different:
Is the slash at the end of MAILDIR neccessary?
The name already says that it is a dir.


:0 c
! blackberry(_at_)forward(_dot_)com


The error message in proclog says:

couldn't create or rename temp file.  "/var/spool/mail/il -oi
blackberry(_at_)forward(_dot_)com"

It seems that it is taking the last part of the sendmail command, and trying
to deliver the message locally rather than forwarding.  Any Ideas?

Because of the c-flag you are forwarding a copy.
So at the end of the .procmailrc there is still
something left to deliver.

Try again with the DEFAULT-setting commented out.
Set LOGABSTRACT=all and VERBOSE=yes.
Your LOG should now show exactly what is going on.
