Also you are wrongish about :0 not 0: At times you need the trailing : - usually when you want to lock the mailbox file for the operation in question. This is usually necessary when using mbox (eg mbox has a file per folder. You do not want an imap or pop client deleting messages from the middle of a file whilst procmail is writing a new message to the end. So:
:0: locks the mailbox and is needed for mbox :0 doesn't, and is fine for maildir. maildir is specifically written to get around the need to lock mailboxes, it has one file per message, and a new message cannot be written to by anything else whilst the message itself is being written.
