It was quickly pointed out that my system was set up to use MBOX and not MAILDIR, and some helpful links and notes were sent back and forth giving me a good clue as to how to perform the conversion process.
I did have success in getting my mail accounts converted from mbox to maildir, but then ran aground.

DROPPRIVS=YES

paulproteus@rose:~ $ cat /etc/procmailrc DROPPRIVS=YES LOGFILE="${HOME}/procmail-log" MAILDIR="${HOME}/Maildir" DEFAULT="./" paulproteus@rose:~ $
