When multiple emails are sent back to back (say as few as 5) in a burst,
procmail does not process them in order: the processing is interleaved.
However, they do show up in the correct order in the mailbox. Why is
procmail interleaving the processing? Is there one procmail fork per email
message? How do I prevent that and force first-in first-out processing?
To force it at the MDA level or the LDA level, I can't answer; maybe
someone else will.
To force it at the user level within procmail, use a global lockfile.
But as long as the messages show up correctly, why bother?
