When the system procmail recipe is being processed, is there a system

local account the message is destined for? Unless I'm missing
something the closest available variable is DEFAULT which maybe I
could use to parse out the local account that will get delivery?
There is no guarantee that $DEFAULT will contain anything related to the
email address. What happens when procmail is invoked via a pipe (say, from
an Mprog mailer invoked from an alias expansion)? Also, DEFAULT may be
redefined, either by the user, or in /etc/procmailrc (the global procmailrc
file), for whatever reason.
Can you indicate what it is you're trying to achieve?
When invoking as am Mprog mailer, I deliberatley pass an identifier in the
commandline of procmail so that I can parse it out in the rcfile.
