Now on a newish gentoo host I've been setting up that host to retrieve
mail. Its running sendmail procmail and fetchmail.

Is Gentoo your local machine using fetchmail to get mail off the server?

Do you have a .forward to redirect the mail to procmail?

Is sendmail in a chroot jail?

Is fetchmail in a chroot jail?

check ownership of $HOME & $HOME/.procmalrc etc eg ~/mail directories.
(mine got changed recently when a script (not procmail associated) ran berserk,
& changed ownerships broke procmail)

Cheers,
