sorry, Michelle,
You've illuminated myself about MH format... I finally found info about it,
MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir

The trailing slash mean "Maildir"
you're right!, I didn't know about the trailing slash meaning! In fact,
I didn't saw a thing about it in my procmail's docs, and I haven't still
found nothing that talk about MH/Maildir and DEFAULT... but you're right!
Yes, it's in "man procmailrc" about 25% of the way down.
Anything else will be taken as a mailbox name (either a filename or a
directory, absolute or relative to the current directory (see
MAILDIR)). If it is a (possibly yet nonexistent) filename, the mail
will be appended to it.
If it is a directory, the mail will be delivered to a newly created,
guaranteed to be unique file named $MSGPREFIX* in the specified direc-
tory. If the mailbox name ends in "/.", then this directory is pre-
sumed to be an MH folder; i.e., procmail will use the next number it
finds available. If the mailbox name ends in "/", then this directory
is presumed to be a maildir folder; i.e., procmail will deliver the
message to a file in a subdirectory named "tmp" and rename it to be
inside a subdirectory named "new". If the mailbox is specified to be
an MH folder or maildir folder, procmail will create the necessary
directories if they don't exist, rather than treat the mailbox as a
non-existent filename. When procmail is delivering to directories, you
can specify multiple directories to deliver to (procmail will do so
utilising hardlinks).
