Well it was working for most messages, but not all. I found a cryptic
message by googling that implied I should not use the systemwide
/etc/procmailrc file to specify delivery to maildir boxes, so I disabled
that and put the delivery information into individual .procmailrc files
in each user's home directory. That seems to have fixed it. Not very
comforting, but it works.
Thanks, Mark
