It does not follow the filename naming convention for creating the individual message filenames, which has some negative consequences. If you open a maildir mailbox with new mail, after a long period of absence, the established filename convention permits the new mail to be shown in a rough chronological order, as received. With procmail, ordering of new messages is likely to be completely random.
