You can do it (slightly) easier using my addition to serialmail:
maildircmd. Put the following command in your crontab:
maildircmd ~/Maildir hanche '{ test $AGE -gt 3600 && qmail-inject recip } || exit
111'
The idea behind maildircmd is to implement spool-and-process mail
handling, instead of on-receipt handling as with procmail or
maildrop. It eliminates the need for lockfiles, and permits
.qmail-style filters.
You can download maildircmd at
