I think I've fixed the problem (mostly).

The real issue is that procmail and sendmail are pretty tightly integrated.
Separating them can be a pain.  So, realizing that only one box on my local
network can receive mail, I did this:

1) Set up my NIS master w/ the id otrs.
2) Put a .forward in this user's home directory to
otrs@<linux_box>.domain.com
3) Enabled incoming relaying on my Linux box
4) Enabled sendmail on Linux box

Rather than trying to have the Linux box process the sendmail leftovers of
another box, re-directing is much easier.

I sure do appreciate your help though.

Jake

"cat /path/to/mailbox-file | formail -ds procmail"

And the ~/.procmailrc is used.
