Because there's no /var/spool/mail/anand I suppose. See what $MAIL is set
to - most likely $HOME/Mailbox
Plus, procmail doesn't do maildir very well.
Try this -
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:$PATH
ORGMAIL=$HOME/Mailbox
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
DEFAULT=$HOME/Mailbox #completely optional
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/procmail.log
:0 Wh: msgid.lock
| formail -D 8192 msgid.cache
:0:
* ^From.*user*
/home/user/users_mailbox
In .qmail put |preline procmail -m ~/.procmailrc
Or try safecat http://www.nb.net/~lbudney/linux/software/safecat.html
which copies stdin to a specified directory. Better than procmail for
maildirs at least ;)
Or you could try another procmail replacement - maildrop - at
http://www.flounder.net/~mrsam/maildrop (works out of the box with qmail,
and for sendmail use this ruleset below)
Mlocal, P=/usr/local/bin/maildrop, F=lsAw5:/|@SPfhn, S=10/30,R=20/40,
T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix,
A=maildrop -d $u
