My suspicion was that it's not.  This is as much info as I have gathered so 
far -

Suspicious procmailrc - I added new/ to the path today, as someone suggested 
elsewhere.  Maybe that's what is being questioned.  Here is the .procmailrc

SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

#Set user variable
USER=`david`

#Set user Inbox directory
MAILDIR=/home/david/Maildir/
DEFAULT=$MAILDIR

#Set logfile
LOGFILE=/home/david/pm.log
MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir/

VERBOSE=YES
LOGABSTRACT=YES

LOG="
"

###For maildir, ensure that all recipe commands end with '/'###

:0
* ^To: .*\@lydgate.org.uk
${MAILDIR}.INBOX.Mailbox/new/
.......

/home/david/pm.log is empty.

Anything else I can trace that may help?  Thanks for replying

Anne
