Now back to procmail related problems ;-)

2) is there a way to prevent procmail from checking if the default mailbox
is "bogus"?
best and uncomplicated one would be creating a unix account per $USER and
set "SHELL=/bin/false" and then use Maildir
Hmm, all users on the mail server are refused to login directly, /etc/passwd
is similar to:
rztest:asdfasdfasdf:111:111:Test-Account:/home/mail/rztest:/bin/false
A typical .procmailrc looks like:
--- .procmailrc
SENDMAIL=`which sendmail`
SHELL=/bin/sh
##### SPAM #####
:0
* ^Subject:.*\*\*\*SPAM\*\*\*
SPAM
:0
* ^Subject:.*test
test
--- end of .procmailrc
The first two lines are necessary for vacation to work, i could not find
another solution for this (also posted quite a while ago on this list).
But changing to "SHELL=/bin/false" also leads to following entry in the mail
logfile:
--- part of /var/log/mail

This happens when the permissions on /var/spool/mail are set to 755 (and the
actuall delivery seems to work) otherwise procmail would remove the symbolic
link and create a new "real" file as inbox file.
Is there no way to prevent this? Where does procmail get the information
that the inbox has to be /var/spool/mail/$USER?
Does this behaviour change when using maildir instead of mbox? (i will be
moving as soon as possible but i really need a workaround for this for some
time ...)
Thanks in advance for any hints! (and sorry for my stubborness in
understanding this ...)
