If I pipe one message into procmail with:
procmail -v -d tbaker <msg.mbox
procmail reports:
Locking strategies: dotlocking, fcntl()
Default rcfile: $HOME/.procmailrc
Your system mailbox: /var/spool/mail/TBaker
and appends the message to the file /var/spool/mail/TBaker,
ignoring the recipe in $HOME/.procmailrc.
This also does not work:
procmail -d tbaker <msg.mbox
However, on the netbook
procmail -d tbaker <msg.mbox
works fine, delivering the message where it is supposed to go.
