It never gets that far. The problem is that it looks for the compiled in location, and errors out immediately. It was a known problem at procmail. When I looked at the rpm, it claimed to have fixed the problem, but it is acting exactly like they claimed it would at procmail. I think this needs to be a separate package. I have seen another distro (Debian I think), and was hoping to find similar for Fedora. In that distro, they had a procmail package, and a procmail-maildir package. In other words it was compiled twice. Fedora's behavior is broke when used with maildirs and per the maintainers instructions.
Why procmail can't look for a config file like every other F*&%ing program on the planet before using a default is beyond my comprehension. ~ But apparently it was never built that way.
