[Dovecot] Getting started with sieve and conversion from procmail

Okay, I'm making progress. I disabled the virtual_domain stuff in
main.cf for postfix and just enabled mail_command=procmail. I think
there's something wrong with the deliver command.

It's now delivering, but my deliver command must be wrong. This is my
~/.procmailrc:

# Log an abstract of all messages
LOGABSTRACT=all

PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/lib:/usr/local/bin
LOGFILE=$HOME/.maillog
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
PROCHOME=$HOME/.procmail
SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail
VERBOSE=yes

DELIVER=/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver

:0 fhW
| $DELIVER -m xspamtest

:0 fhw
| $DELIVER

When a mail is received, it prints this to .maillog:

procmail: [23382] Tue Nov 15 18:56:04 2011

It delivers to the mail spool, but executing deliver as its printed in
the procmailrc:

# # /usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -m spamtest
lda(root): Fatal: destination user parameter (-d user) not given

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Alex
