Er... sorry, but why is a patch needed for this? I was expecting to
find just some folder naming rule. Aren't both dovecot and procmail
maildir compatible?

Apart from this, running patched software would go against this:

and "I want" isn't really correct, I basically "have to", for reasons
irrelevant here, make the maintainance of that server as automatic as
possible, without installing compilers or using anything else but the
local (intranet) mirrors of the official repositories.

So unfortunately this patch isn't for me, not this time at least, but
thanks.

Ciao,
