I have no idea, could you 'strace' procmail for me? My home directory is
on the local disk, but delivery is in /coda. I did have to modify the
maildir delivery code to use rename instead of cross-directory hardlinks.
Oh wait a minute, I didn't have to patch procmail on my Debian machine
anymore. Cool, procmail 3.15.1 already has the right stuff to handle
EXDEV errors when attempting a hardlink.
